This is the final part 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 and part 2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2d-dciQFTo if you missed those.
This episode covers more maneuver-specific guidance and accident reviews:
- Autorotations
- Simulated Engine Failures
- Off-Airport Operations
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.
