This is a collection of flying instructor Helen Krasner's flight test articles, which were originally published in 'Today's Pilot' and some other aviation magazines. The first in a proposed series of four books, this one looks at the smaller helicopters on which most people learn to fly, such as the Robinson R22, R44, Schweizer 300CBi, and Bell 206 JetRanger. Each helicopter is described in detail, with an account of Helen's personal experiences of what it is like to fly it for the first time. It is thus much more than a theoretical textbook account. There is also a section on the history of each type, and detailed specifications. Where possible, a photo of each helicopter is included. This book is aimed at anyone interested in helicopter flying, whether they already fly helicopters, hope to in the future, fly models, or simply find rotary aircraft fascinating. It would also make an excellent gift for any rotary enthusiast. It contains a great deal of detail, and is over 27,000 words in length. Future books will cover flying 'Popular Helicopters', 'Historic Helicopters' and 'More Unusual Helicopters'.
This is the world's most popular book on amateur-built gyroplanes. It introduces these unique helicopter-like aircraft that have become popular worldwide for sport flying. Thousands of pilots now take to the sky in these small, maneuverable aircraft that they themselves have built. This book tells what gyroplanes are like, how they fly, and how to learn to fly them. It contains a section on selecting the best gyroplane for your individual needs. It discusses frankly the risks of flying these aircraft and provides information on flying safety. There's a pilot report that lets you feel a real flight in a gyroplane and a troubleshooting guide for beginning pilots. This book contains hard-to-get information on where the gyroplane came from and current popular models of gyroplanes. It has many photographs and illustrations. Author Paul Bergen Abbott is a veteran gyroplane pilot who recently received the Gyrocopter Pioneer Award from Hofstra University for his aviation journalism, which includes this book, plus another book, "Understanding the Gyroplane," along with other books and magazine articles, and experience as editor/publisher of Rotorcraft magazine. Abbott is also the editor of a book by Igor Bensen, the inventor of the Gyrocopter, "A Dream of Flight." Abbott wrote the original edition of "The Gyroplane Flight Manual" in 1977 and has continually updated and expanded it. This is the seventh edition of this popular book.
This book explores all the ways to fly - especially those that can be affordably enjoyed without a lot of training. The author discusses the fun and reward of the "other" flying sports such as soaring, paragliding, ballooning, remote-controlled airplane flying, ultralight piloting, and hang gliding, and answers the questions most often asked about each one. This is a great introduction to variations on flight that will appeal to all ages. It discusses training requirements, the necessary time investment, cost, equipment, safety, and basics of each option. It is generously illustrated with more than 100 illustrations, including an 8-page color insert.
