Helicopters

More about the book

The helicopter has been aptly described as 'the toy that grew up'. It really did begin as a toy, for the first really successful helicopter was a model made by two Frenchmen in the 18th century. In this fact-filled guide, each aircraft is covered in detail, with annotated colour profile artworks, colour and black-&-white photographs, feature boxes outlining its development, technical specifications, performance data, and variants.
