This is the fourth collection of articles from flying instructor Helen Krasner's popular column in the publication "Flight Training News". Written at various times over the period 2006 - 2011, this book is aimed at anyone who is interested in helicopter flying, but should be particularly useful for helicopter flight instructors or those thinking of following this career path at some point. However, Helen's informal and readable style means her articles are accessible to others, including flight students, people who have a helicopter pilot's licence and fly as a leisure activity, or just simply aviation enthusiasts.
This book consists of 13 articles, has well over 20,000 words, and includes a useful glossary. Topics covered include getting your first instructing job, conducting trial lessons, teaching emergencies, and how to deal with panicky students. it is based on Helen's personal experiences, and includes many interesting anecdotes. A good read!
