I had this time we were in a robinson 22r coming back from napa. We landed at concord.... I went to throotle up and adjust some pitch. We had about 5 feet from the skids to the ground and lost the motor.
We had a hard landing... But damn few seconds before would have had a differant outcome as we were flying over the delta.
I dont think I'll ever really want to auto rotate.. We practiced that alot... But... I'll pass. kissed the ground after I put my kidneys back into place...
Funny talking to the tower about it... They were like WTH.... Why you guys chilling... Oh wait why is my 22r seem shorter..... hahaha..

5 feet?
not enough for an auto rotate, or even time for it...
but as the old saying goes... any landing you walk away from, is a good landing...
