@race4ev You got it!!! i was waiting for my turn, and feeling the manouvers from the best point of view... Capt. Bosco, is the only eurocopter-authorized instructor to do full down real auto's and many other failures on the astar's for all the latin america... im not sure if in the USA, american eurocopter does something like it... but the emergency training program made by capt. Bosco teaches many system failures that no one else has the balls to teach... thanks for your comment!
@LarryCanFly Thanks Larry!! yeah, the "dead man curve" start's at 500ft agl, so we had 200ft to gain more rpms... actually is: 1) collective down ( first of all, so you wont miss much rpms and will gain blade attitude fast to start speeding up). THEN, left pedal, the astar is an french clockwise turning rotor, so, to compensate the torque, we use right pedal, but, as theres no torque, youll need left pedal to maintain aligned trim and nose. after that nose down and chase the numbrs...
Great video, if your school doesn't do this they should. It's great training and goes much faster than the standard straight and level 60kt auto. Most importantly though is conditioning yourself to drop the collective at the first sign of failure.
On the right is the trainee, left is Cmte Bosco, a very good Flight Instructor specially in emergencies. On the back is probably another trainee. About procedures on full touchdowns, it is foolish to think that any pilot will be ready for a emergency if he doesn't go though a training like this, where you actually reduce power and does a REAL emergency.
@theocoelho - Tinha tempo que nao entrava no youtube entao nao vi seu comment. Eu fiz esse treinamento com o Bosco em 2000 no mesmo helicoptero quando ele ainda estava na helibras. Foi Fantastico, o melhor treinamento de emergencias que eu ja tive. Assim que retornar ao Brasil pretendo ir em fazer um refresh com o Bosco.
This was Great... A new top 10 video but it still does not compare to some of the "Oh Heck.... We Just Threw a Main Blade" videos from old Soviet military student pilot training sessions
@race4ev @race4ev By the way, after the Record TV Astar Accident Capt. Bosco, now simulates the worse situation, Full down auto rotation, from OGE hover (1200ft), AND tail rotor failure, as ocurred on the record helicopter accident... The manouver is insane, it spins like the real situation, 6 or 7 times before reaching speed and flare to land... ill have the video of the manouver being done posted soon...
@ColtDeltaElite10mm This is what should be done by all operators... it's a significant cost, so they think more on how much they would spend with regular training then on how much w'd cost an accident or crash because of unprepared crew.
@aligerous Actually, i was there only because the whole emergency training program was made for me and my fellow, ordered by the company we fly... so, while i was flying, he was watching and recording, and while he flew, i recordered and paid attention to do it right... i cant see the second passenger, as i was the only one, and had to sign an agreement to be there because all the risks and stuf...

Excellent video thanks for sharing. Not enough out there demonstrating OGE hover autos
This is the best video on youtube displaying what an auto is. Great job!

Nice footage man!

that looks very frightening

Do you have to feather the collective a little bit to maintain healthy rotor RPM?
@theocoelho
Please post, that would be great to see.
@aligerous there was 2 students, and one instructor...
FUCKIN HELL!!!! Scary stuff!
And that's why I only fly planes.
