DESCRIPTION:
Recently updated, this comprehensive handbook explains the aerodynamics of helicopter flight, as well helicopter maneuvers, unlike many aviation training manuals which are strictly how-to guides. Beginning aerodynamics, each step of the process is fully illustrated and thoroughly explained—from the physics advanced operations to helicopter design and performance—providing helicopter pilots with a sound to base their in-flight decisions. Containing discussions on the NOTAR (no tail rotor) system, strakes, principles of airspeed and high-altitude operations, this re

Great Technical Manual Matthew J. Unger This is NOT a flight instruction book, and is quite heavy reading. It requires a basic understanding of physics and mathematics in order to comprehend the descriptions and explanations. With that said, this is a must-have book for all aspiring rotorheads!This book is a terrific technical manual regarding the physics behind rotary-winged flight. It explains through diag.
