Although a number of texts on helicopter aerodynamics have been
written, few have explained how the various theories concerning
rotorborne flight underpin practical flight test and evaluation.
This book combines theoretical information on aerodynamics,
stability, control and performance with details of evaluation
methodologies and practical guidance on the conduct of helicopter
flight tests. For each topic the relevant theory is explained
briefly and followed by details of the practical aspects of testing
a conventional helicopter. These include: safety considerations
planning the tests the most efficient way to conduct individual
flights Where possible typical test results are presented and
discussed. The book draws on the authors' extensive experience in
flight test and flight test training and will appeal not only to
professionals working in the area of rotorcraft test and
evaluation, but also to helicopter pilots, rotorcraft designers and
manufacturers and final year undergraduates of aeronautical
engineering
