yeah but that's just the single rotorblade
I'm talking about the entire aircraft.. which well on a fixed wing is pretty much the wing since the wing is fixed.(ignoring f35 or harriers, those can maintain flight despite stalled wing)
The mast bumping would happen if the helicopter is in the same low G state as a fixed wing
And while the fixed wing, typically will self recover.. it can depart if pilot does the wrong thing.
in rotorcraft, obviously the darn thing won't self recover because it really doesn't wanna fly to begin with.. So pilot has to do something right if he wants to come home that day.
But if he does something wrong, he'll end up with mast bumping (bad bad) where the fixed wing would most likely just spin (bad but ok if altitude is there)
no?
So basically fixed wing vs helictoper
Helicopter basic state is already unglued to begin with, and problem state means critical in seconds.. where fixed wing only starts becoming unglued at much more evolved problem state and critical state is waaaay longer process to arrive
