Just a theoretical question that someone may be able to help with.
Alot of helicopters have only two rotor blades, ie:Robinsons, Bells, etc. Others have multiples, ie:dauphins with 4, Hughes etc. If a blade is thrown on a two blade, bend over and kiss your rear bye bye. What would happen if you had a 4, 5, or even 6 blade?Would you still be able to autorotate? I know the airframe would probably vibrate violently, but would it be survivable in an autorotate, or even low power to at least get to the ground. Have there been instances in the past where this has happened with a 2 blade. Thanks in advance. Rob Fonhof |
