Re: Chills and Helicopters

Well, Larry, you have been introduced to fully articulated rotors.  The
stall  to which you refer is called retreating blade stall, which has
limited the forward airspeed of helicopters for years.  The neat thing is
that when any of the forces are applied to the rotor, it doesn't happen
for 90 degrees on around.  Scary, huh?

There is no problem that cannot be solved
with either a checkbook or high explosives.
