Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This is the first book to tell the fascinating 80-year history of today's gyroplane and its antecedent, the Autogiro. Charnov explains that the near-eclipse of the Autogiro was caused by a potent combination of bad luck, the impact of the Great Depression and World War II and egregious business decisions. Only by understanding the amazing manner in which this aviation technologies has persisted and evolved can one fully understand the basis for its future. In contrast to the fate of the Autogiro, the gyroplane's unfolding story is characterized by successful business models, effective decision making, and the emergence of cutting-edge technology.

Book excerpt: This is a high quality facsimile of Wings of Tomorrow by Juan De La Cierva and Don Rose, originally published in 1931.This book describes the conception and invention of the Autogiro and its implementation in the early days of aviation. It is told from the perspective of Juan De La Cierva, one of the leading men in the development of the Autogiro.The first real flying machine was an airplane; it seemed for many years that all such craft must be airplanes, for there were few signs of promise and none of success in any other applications of mechanical principles to the problem of flight. There were some scattering efforts to build helicopters and ornithopters, but none that proved remotely successful.Juan De La Cierva conceived the idea to look in another direction and this was the real genesis of the Autogiro. De La Cierva was convinced by experience and his studies that it was wrong to assume that the only practical heavier-than-air craft was the airplane. He went back to the fundamental idea of the flying machine, recognizing that the conventional airplane is one of its types but not necessarily the only one. Not even, indeed, the best one, for the approximate perfection of the airplane had resulted in a flying machine of definitely limited performance, efficiency and dependability.Chapters:Introduction: Flying by Machinery1.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few technological advances have affected the lives and dreams of individuals and the operations of companies and governments as much as the continuing development of flight. From space exploration to package transport, from military transport to passenger helicopter use, from passenger jumbo jets to tilt-rotor commuter planes, the future of flying is still rapidly developing. The essays in this volume survey the state of progress along several fronts of this constantly evolving frontier. Five eminent authorities assess prospects for the future of rotary-wing aircraft, large passenger aircraft, commercial aviation, manned spaceflight, and defense aerospace in the post-Cold War era.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Autogiro Pioneer' is a vivid account of the varied life and adventures of Jack Richardson (1899-1987). The book is based on his memoirs, which have been edited by his son. In the 1930s he worked for Juan de la Cierva, the inventor of the Autogiro (the forerunner of the helicopter), and was the first person to obtain a commercial pilot's licence as an Autogiro pilot. This work involved (among other activities) several hazardous flights across Europe in all kinds of weather. In 1944 he learnt how to fly the new Sikorsky helicopters in the United States, and became the first fully-trained helicopter pilot in the British Army. In his later career with the Army and with Westland Aircraft he helped to develop the military and commercial uses of the helicopter, played a major role in the construction of the Heliport at Battersea, and was Chairman of The Helicopter Association. As a young man he had been a cavalry officer in the Ninth Lancers, and for seven years a successful orange farmer In South Africa. He was a keen racing skier and amateur painter. The book is illustrated with 100 pictures in black and white and in colour.
