I wonder how many people have longed too see this ... and hopefully did.

Nice, is that DCS? There is an RNZAF skin on the DCS website for the UH1 if you are interested.

[Splitpin]

Have you mast bumped it yet?

Have you mast bumped it yet?

Not yet Nick ...... but must be soon

[chopper_nut]

I'd be interested to see the results

[Splitpin]

Its a hard one to handle .... but I will try a slope landing .... bound to happen then, for me anyway
Interesting to see if the mast separates ... they say (DCS) the dynamics are accurate .

[chopper_nut]

Yeah the slope landing will be interesting. I'd be keen to see how it behaves in flight. If you push it over but put right pedal in, will it be catastrophic?.....

As a lowly fixed winger, would you care to enlighten us on what mast bumping is?

[chopper_nut]

A slight problem that two bladed helicopters suffer from where the rotor head and the mast 'bump' into each other which either cuts the tail off or cuts the tail off and then separates the rotor head from the drive train.

Watch on youtube.com

Mast bumping is unique to two bladed machines
