Mountains and hills present some of the most frequently encountered problems, as do adverse weather conditions, winter operations, carrying loads, forced landings, and rescue or other special operations. This book gives sound guidance and advice on how to evaluate and deal with many of these situations.

This indispensable tool prepares helicopter pilots for their one-on-one checkride with an FAA examiner. Answers to the most commonly asked questions, clarification on the requirements of the written and oral portions, and study material for the exam are provided, and topics covered include certification and documents, helicopter flight-controls, weight and balance, and emergency operations. This volume of the Oral Exam Guide Series is intended as a helicopter-specific supplement to--and is meant to be used along with--the corresponding Oral Exam Guide book for Private, Instrument, Commercial, CFI, or ATP, depending on the specific license the applicant is testing for. The material is presented in a question-and-answer format, providing the questions the FAA checkride examiners are most likely to ask along with comprehensive, easy-to-remember responses. This guide teaches not only what to expect on the helicopter pilot oral exam, but also how to exhibit subject mastery and confidence while under the examiner's scrutiny.

This book is not a substitution for the helicopter flight manual and should not be treated as such. It is intended to give further information relating to the different sections of the flight manual and to explain the helicopter systems more clearly. I have added in some extra information where I felt it would be beneficial but overall I have tried to keep the book as simple as possible while still covering all the sections in the flight manual. This book will not teach you how to fly the aircraft. However it will give you the necessary technical information to conduct your flight safely. It is written with the new Jet Ranger pilot in mind. It is assumed that you already hold your private pilot's licence and have limited or no previous Jet Ranger experience. You should be familiar with flying techniques, as this book will not teach you how to fly.
