The rotor wake Ground effect in hover Vortex-ring state Hover figure of merit and forward flight lift-to drag ratio Maximum load factor Emergency maneuvering Is the rotor a gyro? Translational lift and transverse flow Flying in steady winds Flight in turbulent air Sideslip and bank Instrument flight Low speed power failures External loads Axes system and trim considerations The lead-lag hinge Designing for maneuverability Designing for high speed Stopping a rotor in flight Aerodynamic modifications Computational fluid dynamics Fly-by-wire Smart control systems New criteria for flying qualities Low observables Landing gear choices Coaxials and synchropters Wich way should the rotor turn? And where should the pilot sit? Windmills
