Is there a flight procedure for take off of a helicopter above its certified OGE altitude?
Ask Filipone: Assume that the helicopter has landing gear. Start running on the ground until you reach a reasonable speed. Then you take off with a forward flight speed. This helps you, because the power required is lower that the power for vertical flight. Look at a typical power curve versus speed. Please circulate answer. Antonio Filippone
