Yeah everyone knows it's required for the skid det to fly on without the wheels and completely goon up the fly on. It's Air Department's fault for not reminding the skidiots a 10th time.Now that's just a stupid idea. What genius decided to put wheels on a helicopter.
@Pags is there a NATOPS manual for the type?Was started as an RDC program back in ~2010-2011. USMC used them for several years in AFG and then the mission and therefore funding went away. The birds are still around (in preservation I think) waiting for a mission/funding.
Watching one of those fly with rotor blades moving all over the place..... its like indecent exposure.What is the navy/Marine Corps designation for the KMax? Also who is actually flying these aircraft when they are in human piloted mode? Are they Naval aviators? Contractors? Will these ever seen shipboard use?
