Ive only been flying for about solid 15 weeks (typically anywhere between 5-20 packs over the weekend) so my experiences amount to an infinitely small quantity when compared to the collective experiences of heli pilots on this forum and indeed some of the grand masters (in my eyes). You all know who you are.

However thought id share some thoughts and opinions on the subject of loss of orientation recovery in general.

We all try very hard to avoid a loss of orientation during flight (as much as we can) and im sure we all know im not not talking about forgetting which way is north or where...

BUILDING MOUNTAINS

I build each mountain on a base of ½-inch (12.5mm) plywood, two feet wide and eight feet long, with a vertical framework of 2x4s and 1x2s. This framework should be angle-braced to give a rigid support for the mountain and provide solid landing zones for your helicopter.

I then mount cardboard sections to the frame and bracing, cut and bent to form basic mountain shapes. The cardboard is fastened to the frame using 1-inch (25mm) screws and wide fender washers. I don’t trust tape to hold, so to attach two pieces of...
