Air Scooter a Farce???
"Robert M. Gary" wrote in message ups.com... Because a properly executed autorotation is a very controlled landing with g-forces no different than a normal landing. NTSB database is full of reports of Jet Rangers and the like breaking skids when being autorotated by professional pilots. -Robert Just because they are professional pilots doesn't mean the autorotation that broke the skids was properly executed. And for every 1 that broke the skids there are no telling how many that did no damage to the airframe. Is there a single case of a BRS being used on ANY aircraft that the airframe wasn't damaged? And looking at the air scooter if the airframe is damaged you can bet your ass that the pilot will be as well.
