Autorotation training in action 🚁

This maneuver is one of the most important emergency procedures helicopter pilots learn. In this video, the engine is brought to idle, allowing the rotor system to spin independently while the helicopter safely glides toward the ground using airflow and downward momentum to keep the blades turning.

During an autorotation, pilots carefully manage airspeed, rotor RPM, and blade pitch to maintain control all the way to the landing spot. It’s a skill that requires precision, focus, and consistent training, and a critical part of becoming a safe, confident helicopter pilot.
