2.0 out of 5 stars
Good information, hard to read.,
By
This review is from: Rotary-Wing Aerodynamics (Dover Books on Aeronautical Engineering) (Paperback)
There is a lot of good information (basically everything youwant to know about designing a helicopter) in this book, but plan tospend a lot of time looking back at previous equations and what the symbols stand for. The symbols change throughout the book making it more confusing. If you want information on in-depth details about design, this book can help. If you are just curious about helicopters, I'd go with a less detailed book.
