Before I started flying, I read books on the principles of flight to find out
what I was letting myself in for. The one I found a very useful introduction to
learning to fly is the 'Helicopter Pilot's Handbook'
by Norman Bailey.
Another book that I found most useful was
'Principles of Helicopter Flight' by
W.J. Wagtendonk.
My training at Aeromega started on 29 May 2009 with instructor Chris Sherriff. Chris was
my sole instructor throughout the first hours of my training. He taught me to
fly the R22 and we got on well.
