AND, ABOVE ALL, HE MUST NEVER ABRUPTLY PUSH THE CONTROL STICK
FORWARD.
Beware of demonstration or initial training flights
A disproportionate number of fatal and non-fatal accidents occur during demonstration
or Initial training flights. The accidents occur because individuals other than the pilot
are allowed to manipulate the controls without being properly prepared or
indoctrinated.
If a student begins to lose control of the aircraft, an experienced flight instructor can
easily regain control provided the student does not make any large or abrupt control
movements. If, however, the student becomes momentarily confused and makes a
sudden large control input in the wrong direction, even the most experienced instructor
may not be able to recover control. Instructors are usually prepared to handle the
situation where the student loses control and does nothing, but they are seldom
prepared for the student who loses control and does the wrong thing.
Before allowing someone to touch the controls of the aircraft, they must be thoroughly
briefed concerning the sensitivity of the controls in a helicopter. They must be firmly
instructed to never make a large or sudden movement with the controls. And, the pilot-
in-command must be prepared to instantly grip the controls should the student start to
make a wrong move.
Manœuvering on the ground
At the tail rotor, do not force the blades as doing so may mis-align them. Do not use
force on the tail rotor surround. The manoeuvering wheels should only be used on hard
and smooth ground. The machine should not be moved by pushing on the canopy or
the horizontal stabiliser.
