Default Helicopter Question

On the ice subject, I recall one time starting the helicopter on some
slick ice and as soon as the main rotor began to turn, the helicopter
began to turn too...slipping on the ice!! Talk about scary?


Yikes!

I've landed on runways like that -- and it's just *not* a fun feeling to
suddenly be a passenger in your own plane.
