The Westland Lynx is a helicopter built by the British factory GKN Westland Aircraft at its Yeovil factory. Its first flight dates from 21 March 1971 as Westland WG.31. Initially designed for utilitarian use for both civilian and military purposes, military interest in this machine led to the development of the Navy and Army version, which would be operational in 1977, and later adopted by various armed forces around the world.

    @birb26 they trigger the thrusters that propel the helicopter, so you don't need to pitch on long-haul flights.
    But you must turn it off when you get close to the desired location, because the yaw doesn't work properly in travel mode

    Nice! But, what does travel mode do?
