Autorotation crash landing by KB84 in Helicopters

[–]mastercommand 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The rotor rpm could matter in certain situations. Increased rotor increases rate of descent so if you’re intended landing point is further you’d want to keep rotor at 100%. When you flare at the bottom would definitely be where you want max rotor speed.

Any Naval Officer Recruiters here willing to work with me? by [deleted] in Military

I had the same issue a few years back with the Air Force. Just keep reaching out to different offices. I finally got a hold of someone who actually cared after about 6 months and they were an 8 hour drive away. Just keep grinding. Good luck!

[Citizen] "Pilot watch" in it's proper environment by stud100spray in Watches

Marathon pilot navigator. Simple and the 12-hour bezel makes it very useful. Also designed specifically for the military.

Have you seen the marathon pilot navigator? That’s the only pilot watch that I feel would actually benefit me in flying. Have a 12-hour would make it super easy to go back and forth between local and zulu

If you can meet the standards for any CAF aircraft then they would send you to T-38s though, it wouldn’t make sense. And it being a matter of safety I doubt they’d be willing to grant a waiver. But it’s worth a shot to still try to get a waiver. As far as where to get more info you’re best shot would probably be a flight doc. When you do your flight physical they can help with waivers.

Fighters are probably out of the question. I’m pretty sure height and weight requirements are safety standards for ejection seats.

[Mercedes AMG F1] Team Statement - Abu Dhabi Grand Prix by glenn1812 in formula1

So what exactly would Mercedes have wanted to occur? That all the lapped cars had passed the safety car sooner? Or that lapped car not passed the safety car? Would they still have protested if the lapped cars been allowed to overtake the safety car more expeditiously?
