Ground 350 run without blades?
Has anyone ever run a AS 350 or 355 without the Main rotor blades fitted?
We do it all the time with our 315 but I've never heard of it with a Squirrel / A Star. It would make tail rotor balancing a lot easier for a start - i.e. no pilot needed. That's what we do with our Lama and use to do with our Alouettes. No one here wants to risk it - "The engines will overspeed" - " It will over speed the gearbox" - " It will over speed/torque the tail rotor" etc. etc. Anyone any real info as opposed to opinions?
