One of the excellent instructors at Bristow Academy pointed out this week that many helicopters have hard landings despite the fact a safe, successful autorotation was easily attainable if only the pilot pulled aft cyclic (and down collective) simulataniously when the engine failed. I was not previously aware that aft cyclic was so important, but now I know and will add it to my toolbox of helicopter piloting skills.
