same plan as me. get the rpc then get into my ac for the rest.
i can fly the xair no problem but not allowed to train in it because of raaus rules forcing us into flying school aircraft.
i actually felt more comfortable in jabirus than tecnams. i like the manual trim.
in the tecnam because the electric trim is so slow your halfway around the circuit still trying to sort it out .
admittedly i don't get enough regular flying to remain current.
you keep coming up with fixed wing comparisons. no one is arguing that. we are talking heli accidents. and i do have extensive helicopter experience.
at school i did a weeks work experience sweeping the floor at the esso heliport and i walked past a sikorski gearbox 5 days in a row. what more do you want.😁
the statistics are available, you can look them up . when i say pilot error maybe i could choose a better term . i mean accidents that are not mechanical failure.
like the seaworld and the washington accidents. both collisions.
i was told i was talking bs by a member who hunts facts but what you said here proves the statistics i found would be correct.
choppers rarely crash and if you took the pilot error crashes out of it i think they would be shown to be extremely reliable.
They can get really cranky. I find it's much more relaxing just to turn the radio off and land after a couple of circuits . There is so much runway at Tullamarine the xair hardly needs any.
way over the top onetrack reply. part 103 is very popular. you can find negatives in everything if you look hard enough.
trying looking up p103 and you might be surprised .
