Annex Bookstore

Cyclic & Collective

Possibly the most complete book written to date on helicopters and helicopter flying. Covers subjects not covered by other manuals such as turbine engines, performance, flight manuals, automatic flight controls, legal aspects, introductory stability and control and multi-engine helicopters.

Written in an easy-to-follow manner, with good use of humour, it explains many of the peculiarities of helicopters in simple English, with examples and diagrams thoughout. This books satisfies in one volume, the needs of all helicopter pilots, from beginner through instructor to advanced. It nicely bridges the gap between engineering texts and explains what pilots need to know.
