Very basic descriptions. Seems like an advertising promo for gyros, sometimes it takes aside objectivity when comparing the gyro tehcnology with helos and planes. Also IMHO a little old material.

Basic and superficial.,

This review is from: The Gyroplane Flight Manual (Paperback)
I bought this book to learn about how a gyroplane actually flies and maneuvers - the actual physics and aerodynamics of gyrocopter flight. I was very disappointed. This is a very basic introduction to the field of gyroplanes and is very superficial. If you are looking for a groundschool textbook to get a good head start on learning to fly a gyro, this is not for you. Plus, for a very short, skimpy, large-print book, it is very overpriced.
