Helicopter Concepts dvd
 

Has anybody bought this DVD and will it play on a normal uk supplied DVD player . I know that america uses ntsc and in the uk we use pal system ? I cant find any info on there website .

I have and it plays fine.

(I believe that both my TV and DVD player are rated for NTSC as well, but they're both cheapies so I doubt you'll have an issue with yours).

Thanks for that info just ordered a copy .Should be here within a few weeks

I can confirm that the DVD plays on my gear (Philips) without any problems.:ok:

It also works on my laptop.

DVD's are VOB files and have nothing to do with PAL or NTSC.
You can play them on your computer as well.:ok:

I've been thinking of getting this DVD too. Does anyone have any comments about it? Is it good value?

Helicopter Concepts DVD
 

An excellent DVD!! I am a person who can learn best when I visualise something. Looking at autos from outside as well as in cockpit cams was really usefull.

A cracking production and informative material, well worth the money.:ok:

I would say that the Helicopter Concepts DVD was very well made and very informative, with clear instructions and visual reference material. That said, I found it quite repetative and think it could have included other material too.

It is however a million miles better than the other R22 DVD's available!

Thanks, think I'll order myself a copy too!

Its good for the basics and i would recommend any student pilot to watch it. Im looking forward to the advanced R22 Auto DVD they are bringing out!

The practical information on the DVD I though was pretty good and the production value shows. But I though the explantion of the aerodynamics and the forces involved in an autorotation was incomplete.

I also saw on thing on the DVD that I though didn't fit. In the 180 auto chapter there is a quick clip of the pilot doing a piroette down a taxiway at about 10-12 ft off the ground. What purpose does that serve on a DVD about autorotation?

Can someone post 'where' you can get this dvd from please.
