Now there's a maneuver that only a REAL helicopter pilot would attempt!
How's the new family doing?

Broke out on top, rolled right side up and continued to an area where it was clear and unrestricted with calm winds. Made a ho-humm landing and waited for more favorable weather conditions at home base. My question is can I log actual IFR? 'Go inverted and autorotate to get some altitude' - hey OSAB, can you explain that out in words a simpleton like me can understand?
