This book describes in superb pictures and text the fascinating
genre of tilt rotor airplanes. Since the first helicopters flew,
attempts have been made to create a link between the mobility of
the rotorcraft and the speed of the winged airplane. At first these
attempts failed simply because of constructive difficulties, since
the technology had not advanced far enough. The progressive
development, though, created in the past decades new possibilities,
and thus led to the V-22 "Osprey", which has meanwhile been
produced in series and is used by the U.S. forces. A civilian
model, the Bell/Agusta BA 209, will soon be introduced
commercially.
