Air Scooter a Farce???

The BRS is a maybe not a done deal. They won't even confirm that the
BRS will be implemented.
AirScotter being a helo would necessitate the BRS being mounted above
the rotor disk. How controllable are rockets launched from a rotating
platform? What prevents the shroud lines from spinning into a single
rope collapsing the canopy?
The task of engineering BRS on a rotorywing isn't a whole lot easier
than an ejection seat that doesn't mince it's pilot as he traverses
the rotor disk. :-)
