Description

Rotorcraft by Frank E. Hitchens provides the reader with information regarding the various types of rotorcraft including helicopters, gyrocopters, proprotors and tiltrotors, both civilian and military. The first section of the book details a history of the development of rotorcraft from the days of the earliest helicopter pioneers to our current time, covering the achievements of those such as Juan de la Cierva, Paul Corno, Harold F. Pitcairn and Igor Sikorsky to name but a few. The second section covers the various types of helicopters identified by their main and anti-torque rotor systems, how helicopters and gyrocopters fly and the similarities and differences between the two types. The third section of the book details a selection of 126 individual rotorcraft types from a wide range of manufacturers both past and present. With each entry is included at least one photograph as well as technical performance data and a short history of the type. Finally, an appendix of rotorcraft facts completes the work. This excellent book from aviation specialist Frank E. Hitchens demonstrates a fascinating collection of aircraft that readers will find of great value and interest.
