This is why I didn't do well in Physics class.

Doesn’t faze me in the slightest tbh.

The Norway crash 3 years back was a bit unnerving as it was the same helicopter type and operators as we were using but my company refused to use the Super Puma 225’s after that. We have now moved to a newer helicopter and different operator.

Sitting on millions of cubic metres of high pressure gas being processed for 3 weeks worries me more!!!

Aerodynamic profile will affect acceleration and terminal velocity. Just watch skydivers playing in the air.

But as Monty says force = mass x acceleration.
