FockeWulf FW 61 by Yoan, Niek [Paperback] $87.62 Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The FockeWulf Fw 61 was the first functional helicopter, first flown in 1936. It was also known as the Fa 61, as Focke began a new company Focke Achgelis after development had begun. Through his work on the C.19 and C.30 autogyros built by FockeWulf under license from Cierva Autogiro, as well as the experience gained through development of the Fw 186, Professor Henrich Focke had come to the conclusion that the inadequacies and limited serviceability of autogyros could only be eliminated by a real helicopter. He and engineer Gerd Achgelis started the design for this helicopter in 1932. A freeflying model, built in 1934 and propelled by a small twostroke engine, brought the promise of success. Today, the model can be seen in the Deutsches Museum in Munich.

Rotorcraft $76.47 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles A rotorcraft or rotary wing aircraft is a heavierthanair flying machine that uses lift generated by wings, called rotor blades, that revolve around a mast. Several rotor blades mounted to a single mast are referred to as a rotor. The International Civil Aviation Organization defines a rotorcraft as supported in flight by the reactions of the air on one or more rotors. Rotorcraft generally include those aircraft where one or more rotors are required to provide lift throughout the entire flight, such as helicopters, autogyros, and gyrodynes. Compound rotorcraft may also include additional thrust engines or propellers and static lifting surfaces. Author: Surhone, Lambert M./ Timpledon, Miriam T./ Marseken, Susan F. Binding Type: Paperback Number of Pages: 108 Publication Date: 2010/05/19 Language: English Dimensions: 5.98 x 9.01 x 0.25 inches |

Cierva C.6 by Hermes, Othniel [Paperback] $101.96 Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Cierva C.6 was the sixth autogyro designed by engineer Juan de la Cierva, and the first one to travel a major distance. Cierva, the engineer responsible for the invention of the autogyro, had spent all his funds in the research and creation of his first five prototypes. So, in 1923, he turned to the Cuatro Vientos Aerodynamics Laboratory chief, Commander Emilio Herrera, who succeeded in persuading General Francisco Echag e, the director of the Military Aviation Aeronautics Department, to take over the second stage in the research and development of Ciervas Autogyros.

Yaw String $68.51 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles The yaw string, also known as a slip string, is a simple device for indicating a slip or skid in an aircraft in flight. It performs the same function as the slipskid indicator ball, but is more sensitive, and does not require the pilot to look down at the instrument panel. Technically, it measures sideslip angle, not yaw angle, but this indicates how the aircraft must be yawed to return the sideslip angle to zero. It is typically constructed from a short piece or tuft of yarn placed in the free air stream where it is visible to the pilot. In closed cockpit aircraft, it is usually taped to the aircraft canopy. It may also be mounted on the aircrafts nose, either directly on the skin, or elevated on a mast, in which case it may also be fitted with a small paper cone at the trailing end. They are commonly used on gliders, but may also be found on jet aircraft (especially fighters), ultralight aircraft, lightsport aircraft, autogyros, airplanes and helicopters. Author: Surhone, Lambert M./ Tennoe, Mariam T./ Henssonow, Susan F. Binding Type: Paperback Number of Pages: 88 Publication Date: 2010/08/21 Language: English Dimensions: 6.00 x 9.02 x 0.21 inches |

Vtol $109.93 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles VTOL is an abbreviation for Vertical TakeOff and Landing aircraft. See also V/STOL. This classification includes fixedwing aircraft that can hover, take off and land vertically as well as helicopters and other aircraft with powered rotors, such as tiltrotors. Autogyros, balloons, airships and rockets are not normally considered VTOL, but may be termed VTVL (Vertical Takeoff with Vertical Landing). Some VTOL aircraft can operate in other modes as well, such as CTOL (Conventional Takeoff and Landing), STOL (Short TakeOff and Landing), and/or STOVL (Short TakeOff and Vertical Landing) mode. Others, such as some helicopters, can only operate by VTOL, due to the aircraft lacking landing gear that can handle horizontal motion. VTOL is a subset of V/STOL. Author: Surhone, Lambert M./ Tennoe, Mariam T./ Henssonow, Susan F. Binding Type: Paperback Number of Pages: 188 Publication Date: 2010/08/24 Language: English Dimensions: 6.00 x 9.02 x 0.43 inches |

Per Lindstrand $58.94 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Per Lindstrand (born September 8, 1948) is a Swedish aeronautical engineer, pilot and adventurer. He is particularly known for his series of recordbreaking transoceanic hot air balloon flights and, later, attempts to be the first to fly a Roziere balloon around the Earth all with British entrepreneur, Sir Richard Branson.Lindstrand not only flies balloons, but many other aircraft as well, and holds an airline transport pilots licence for single and multiengined land and sea aeroplanes and helicopters, and a commercial pilots licence for autogyros, airships and gliders. His long standing dream to make a flight around the world in a hot air balloon (as opposed to a Roziere or gas balloon which requires no constant source of heated air) still remains unrealized. His distance, duration and altitude records have made him one of the best known balloonists and aerostat designers and engineers in the world.

Ken Wallis $68.51 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Wing Commander Kenneth Horatio Wallis MBE, DEng (hc), CEng, FRAeS, FSETP, PhD (hc), RAF (Retd), is one of the leading exponents of autogyros. He has held (in some cases still holds) 34 records relating to them. Born on 26 April 1916 at Ely, Cambridgeshire, he developed a practical interest in mechanics, building a motorcycle at the age of 11. In the 1930s he bought and assembled a Flying Flea aircraft. These were kit form midget aircraft which were banned in 1936 after several fatalities due to design flaws. He took an interest in powerboating which he kept up until 1957, when he won the 56mile (90 km) long Missouri Marathon. Author: Surhone, Lambert M./ Tennoe, Mariam T./ Henssonow, Susan F.
