Written by test pilot Shawn Coyle, the author of "Cyclic and Collective" and a regular columnist for Vertical Magazine, "The Little Book of Autorotations" covers the practical aspects of autorotation – "no theory, and no vector diagrams, but what you'll see in the cockpit." Geared toward students and flight instructors, with lots of hints for instructors, the book builds from pre-flight briefings to specific flight exercises that ensure students understand each element before proceeding to the next stage.
