Completissimo!
O livro aborda estudos de casos dos principais tipos de acidentes envolvendo diversos modelos de helicópteros, logo se torna uma grande fonte de conhecimento e aprendizagem. É realmente muito completo e detalhado, com fontes dos casos investigados pela NTSB incluindo fotos. Uma pena a aviação brasileira não possuir este livro em nosso mercado, pois além de não haver versões traduzidas, raramente se encontra algum em inglês à venda nas lojas, por isto recorri ao Amazom.com.br para obter este belo exemplar, leitura "obrigatória" para todo piloto de helicóptero!

very interesting and well written
The author comments and description of the accidents give a good point of view on the causes and link them to the helicopter theory in a very clear way. It covers all the more critical situations a helicopter pilot could find himself.

Excellent book with some great information
Excellent book with some great information. It's been a help through my career, and I recently purchased another copy after my original copy got passed around so much it just disappeared.

Tons of info and topics
My favorite thing about this book is the amount of topics which are covered. Definitely a great book and highly recommended for any pilot, even students. It also explains things like LTE and how to avoid them. Improvements: It would be great if the author made a website with videos of hard to find helicopter accidents like rotor stalls and settling with power. Color pictures. More case studies (there are enough to prove the point but more variety for each thing wouldn't hurt). More tips on handling rotor stalls and other SFAR issues on low inertia rotor blade helicopters like the (ultra popular) R22. There was one tip in the book about a common sign of engine issues which was great. A summary of important things to remember. Thanks for a great book
