Helicopter Flying Handbook

[nephros 23]

I found this download on the FAA website - A pdf of the FAA Helicopter Flying handbook:

http://www.faa.gov/library/manuals/aircraft/media/faa-h-8083-21A.pdf

and a list of other manuals here:

http://www.faa.gov/library/manuals/aircraft/

I'm not a pilot and I wanted to learn a bit more on the specifics of helicopter flight theory and stuff, and I found it to be perfect for my needs. I thought it might be interesting for others as well.

Nice find! I was actually thinking of making a thread like this, only having community members write little tips they find useful for flying in the game. Maybe we should have a thread for resources and tips. What do you think?

My tip would be to enable Autohover for landings and when exact hovering (for sling loads) is neccessary.:) With "autohover on" you can still doing control inputs.
