I dunno about anyone else, but *ANY* odd noise gets my left hand back
on the collective Right Effin' Now!

Funny story:

Like you said I've been pretty hardwired for years on the odd noise or
blinking light thing to be prepped for an auto "right effing now". So a
couple years ago I went out and got my fixed wing ticket and bought an
airplane. Well the airplane has a "bitching betty" and for a few of the
things she says theres a horn sound that goes off right before she talks,
and that horn sounds EXACTLY like the engine out horn in my Jet Ranger. I
can't tell you how many times in the first couple months of flying that
plane that I reached for a collective that wasn't there and almost soiled
myself when that damn thing sounded off.

Ha ha - that's pretty funny. However I may now endure nightmares about
flying a helo. having an engine fail and the collective magically
disappearing.
