At the start of the video, the nose of the heli is
pointed almost straight down as if he is coming out the back side of a loop. I've not done that many autos, but it didn't look like any of the ones I've been involved with. It kinda looked like a loop with not enough ground clearance. Hard to tell from the clip. One thing for sure is that his day went south in a hurry... Hope he survived, because that much deacceleration can cause massive internal injuries. Don W.

Looked like as soon as his two "crutches" let go of him, he slowly crumpled to the ground. Auto gone bad??? |
