This introduction presents an overview of key concepts discussed in the subsequent chapters of this book. The book aims to provide sufficient knowledge and understanding to enable a basic flight simulation of a helicopter to be created. It discusses the problems of trim and stability, providing a range of analytical tools necessary to work at these two facets of helicopter flight mechanics. The book extends the analysis of stability to considerations of constrained motion and completes the ‘working with models’ with a discussion on helicopter response characteristics. It deals with helicopter flying qualities from objective and subjective standpoints respectively and also covers agility and flight in degraded visual conditions. The book provides a detailed treatment of the sources of degraded flying qualities, particularly flight in degraded visual conditions, the effects of failures in flight system functions, and the impact of severe atmospheric disturbances. It presents an extensive coverage of the flight dynamics of tiltrotor aircraft.
