Lesson - Plan MFHC

This document outlines a lesson plan for a course on mechanics of flight and helicopter configuration. The course is divided into 5 units that will be taught over an odd semester in 2022-2023. Unit I covers airflow, aerodynamics, airfoils and forces of lift. Unit II covers forces acting in flight such as lift, drag, thrust and stability. Unit III covers helicopter aerodynamics including rotor systems. Unit IV covers main rotors, rotor heads and flight controls. Unit V covers tail rotors, transmissions and rotor blade mechanics. The course allocates 14 hours to each unit using specified textbooks that are available.
