The best introduction to helicopters available

This book has long been the standard - and best - introduction to helicopters and other rotary-wing aircraft. First principles are simply and accurately presented, then built upon to provide an interesting, well presented exposition on these fascinating aircraft. Fay covers rotary-wing aircraft development from its beginnings to show how we have arrived at the present-day helicopter. Highly recommended.
