Recovery is not to pull in more power, that just increases your rate of sink. You apply cyclic (preferrably forward, but any direction will work) and altitude permitting, lower the collective and fly out of it.. Once you're out of the vortex, pull pitch and climb out. That sounds the same to me. -- boB Wing 70 U.S. Army Aviation (retired) Central Texas - 5NM West of Gray Army Airfield (KGRK) |
