Preface
The Helicopter Flying Handbook is designed as a technical manual for applicants who are preparing for their private,
commercial, or light instructor pilot certiicates with a helicopter class rating. Certiicated light instructors may ind
this handbook a valuable training aid, since detailed coverage of aerodynamics, light controls, systems, performance,
light maneuvers, emergencies, and aeronautical decision-making is included. Topics such as weather, navigation, radio
navigation and communications, use of light information publications, and regulations are available in other Federal
Aviation Administration (FAA) publications.
This handbook conforms to pilot training and certiication concepts established by the FAA. There are different ways of
teaching, as well as performing, light procedures and maneuvers, and many variations in the explanations of aerodynamic
theories and principles. This handbook adopts a selective method and concept to lying helicopters. The discussion and
explanations relect the most commonly used practices and principles. Occasionally the word “must” or similar language
is used where the desired action is deemed critical. The use of such language is not intended to add to, interpret, or relieve
a duty imposed by Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR). Persons working towards a helicopter rating are
advised to review the references from the applicable practical test standards (FAA-S-8081-3 for recreational applicants,
FAA-S-8081-15 for private applicants, and FAA-S-8081-16 for commercial applicants). Resources for study include
FAA-H-8083-25, Pilot’s Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge, and FAA-H-8083-1, Aircraft Weight and Balance Handbook,
as these documents contain basic material not duplicated herein. All beginning applicants should refer to FAA-H-8083-25,
Pilot’s Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge, for study and basic library reference.
It is essential for persons using this handbook to become familiar with and apply the pertinent parts of 14 CFR and the
Aeronautical Information Manual (AIM). The AIM is available online at www.faa.gov. The current Flight Standards
Service airman training and testing material and learning statements for all airman certiicates and ratings can be obtained
from www.faa.gov.
This handbook supersedes FAA-H-8083-21, Rotorcraft Flying Handbook, dated 2000. Gyroplane information can be found
in the FAA-H-8083-16, Gyroplane Flying Handbook.
This handbook is available for download, in PDF format, from www.faa.gov.
This handbook is published by the United States Department of Transportation, Federal Aviation Administration, Airman
Testing Standards Branch, AFS-630, P.O. Box 25082, Oklahoma City, OK 73125.
