Synopsis:
Written with a building-block approach to learning to fly a helicopter, this comprehensive textbook shows pilots the underlying foundation of why the helicopter behaves the way it does. Discussing the complexities of helicopter flight in clear terms, this book explains the aerodynamic factors associated with rotor stalls, mast bumping, and wind effect. Also included are testing requirements and complete helicopter theory that every pilot can grasp and use to best master this type of aircraft.
About the Author: W. J. Wagtendonk was a flight lieutenant with the Royal New Zealand Air Force and founder of the Nelson Aviation College.
