Description

This is the second in a 3-part series where I join Max Trescott on The Rotary Wing Show Podcast to discuss some of the dangerous student errors in helicopter training and how instructors can prevent mistakes from becoming accidents.

Check out part 1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STOPdnUg4zQ&list=PLJ8xtPILNIlhFk4nkt8bmgansopKNlITS if you missed it.This episode covers more maneuver-specific guidance and accident reviews:• Quick Stops / Rapid Decelerations• Vortex Ring State (VRS)• Hover Autos

For this video version, I’ve added graphics and short clips to make the discussion clearer for visual learners. I also reference recent training accidents to highlight why these techniques are so important.
