Throttle Handling

[Chopper Reid]

I have seen a few comments regarding the reducing of power or throttle where its been said " chop throttle". Sudden changes of power are to be avoided unless its critical to safety, all movements of any control should be SMOOTH, even the hardest turn or reduction of throttle can be done smoothly.

BTW, it doesnt matter if you fly CLT /HLT or whatever, keep it smooth! Everything will last so much longer.:director:

The average pilot has enough to contend with without making any abrupt control or throttle movements.

Whilst you Birdy use changes to your advantage and have the skill and the need to handle big changes to power or attitude.
