If I recall correctly we did tests on a 350 where they shut
down the engine and restarted on Apical emerg floats.
I think it rotated once or twice before the TR had enough
thrust , not exactly spinning , dont know if the teetering
rotor on a Bell makes it any more dangerous.
If you're starting a 206 in wind, and the thing starts spinning,
things can get very interesting very quickly. The tailboom can
be severed before you can blink your eye. Personally, I
wouldn't even try it.
