As a (so far) fixed-wing pilot, I was unaware of this phenomenon until reading about it in the current AOPA Pilot magazine (Feb. 20, pg 78).
Are non-powered rotor wings also susceptible to VRS (aka 'Power Settling)? It would seem so from reading the article.
If so, VRS may be the cause of some of the "How did that happen?" landing incidents I've read about on this forum.
I highly recommend the article.
