• Abstract:
  This handbook, developed by Flight Standards Service and published as advisory circular number 61-13, was prepared as a technical manual for applicants preparing for private, commercial, and flight instructor pilot certificates with a helicopter rating. Currently certificated helicopter flight instructors will also find h valuable as an aid in training students since it gives detailed coverage of helicopter aerodynamics, performance, and flight maneuvers. It does not include material on such things as weather, navigation, radio navigation and communications, use of a computer, use of flight information publications, and pertinent Federal Aviation Regulations. These common topics, with the exception of regulations, may be found in the FAA publication, Private Pilot's Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge, and in other FAA publications listed in the references. Up-to-date applicable regulations should be purchased and studied by the airman applicant. All pertinent regulations, as well as the Private Pilot's Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge, are sold by the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office.
