Robinson Review

Great introduction to the Robinson R22 only. I would recommend the read to the complete novice only.

A Wonderful Introduction & Review of the R22

Highly recommend this book for an introduction to the R22 from top to bottom. A great review as well. This book covers most anything you need to know about the R22 helicopter.

Intro to Helicopter flight

I decided to try about ten hours in training for piloting a helicopter. I don't intend to complete this work as of my age and the cost prohibit my considering a career as a helicpter pilot. However, as an airplane pilot I was curious. The book Robinson R22 was very helpful as it covers the preflight inspection very well with pictures and location of the varous parts. Along with good flight instruction it helps anticipate the problems of controlling a very difficult machine. I would recommend both the R22 as a good training machine and the book as a constant companion when out of the helicopter but anticipating the next lesson.
