I'm sure some of you have seen this, but it's pretty cool. Watch at the end where the pilot does an auto rotation landing, I think I'd probably crap my pants!!!

WOW! That looked intense. Just goes to show that you really have to be on top of it to fly one of those and deal with an emergency situation. I can't imagine how it would be if the engine just failed without warning.

when i was younger i used to hang out with a few heli pilots went on a test flight one day and we went to 4000 ft and my buddy did an auto from 4000ft to 2000ft it took me the rest of the flight to get my tummy back off the ceiling I was actually surprised at how fast 2500 lbs falls down when there is no lift before that i thought that a beach 18 was wicked when doing full stalls not even close  just had to share |
