A Must Have For Helicopter Pilots Operating in the Mountains! Useful and practical information not found in other pubs like the FAA's Helicopter Handbook. The mountain flying portion alone is worth the price of admission, because it provides valuable information and techniques for understanding and operating in varying wind and terrain conditions. Other than the brilliant work of the Canadians in British Columbia, no one has put this out for pilots who need the tools to fly effectively and safely in the mountains. I know, because I spent the last 25 years of my aviation care. To the point kp It is not a detailed ground course, but it does offer good information for advanced helicopter pilot situations. it is great for pilots that may want to work in these environments and are courious about the various considerations. I am not disappointed to add it to my reference library.. "get FAA book" according to themusicman. Good book but the FAA book has more information and is more detailed. It is clean and is pretty basic stuff to get you started on getting your pilots license.
