tail rotor rotation direction
Hell Kevin you have to have some patience with us Senior Aviators (sounds
better than old farts). I had looked at the R-44 tail rotor from a distance
and "Assumed" that it was the same as the R-22. Between eyesight and knee
jerk judgement I boo booed. Thankfully I caught it before it hit the
magazine.

Oops. I inadvertently included the R-44 as a ship whose tail rotor
turned
the wrong direction. This is not true. I have been informed that the
R-44
has some additional gearing to obtain the proper rotation.
I was about to jump on you for the R44 "error".. Stuart would have
had to fly down here, beat me up and then fly back.
