Has anyone experienced
and engine out and have any testimonies as to what happens?
Hi
Jeff,
I think it's pretty well
established that there will be no windmilling at any reasonable speed. I
can personally confirm that the 2.85 drive will not windmill up to 110-120
kts or so. I still have a perfectly clear mental image of the prop sitting
at 10:00-4:00 position :-0
The 2.17 drive would be more
likely, but I think it's been reported that it won't windmill either.
If anything, that may be a plus for PSRU's.
Cheers,
Rusty (mentally working on
the single rotor gyrocopter)
