now from that there gonna improvise and get the top rotors to stop completly, and get 100% engine power to the tailpiece, and then it becomes a vtol high speed troop carrier

just gotta use the imagination and somone will figure out how to turn it into reality
I am somwhere I don't know where I am!!!

It'll never fly faster than the Lynx though.

Physics forbid any helicopter to do so (for real).

Looks like someone didn't bother checking in with the company archives office first before they got all excited about this project ;D

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.
