Yes, but not his sequel.

Dustoff
The Art of Flying Helicopters
ADM for Helicopter Pilots (published by www.helicoptersonly.com)
FM 1-203 (of course) although I hear they deleted everything about autorotations
Low Level Hell
Or you can just tune in and watch Valor on CW. Or if you can find reruns of Riptide...

Nice story. Reminds me of how old I am because I started out in the Huey...thanks.........
Reading about Novosel in the museum there and seeing the main street named after him, I had imagined that he was bigger than life! New to the WO Program and to flying, I think we were all a bit enamered by his name alone. I was abosolutely amazed at just how friendly and humble he was when I had the chance to meet and talk with him. Just an ordinary guy that performed in an extraordinary manner.
The UH-1N is what gave me the aviation bug. Started working on them in 2011.... deployed with them... the next year the USMC phased them out. Absolutely love that helicopter. The twin engine stab bar version.

I’m sure this is blasphemy in the hallowed halls of Mother Rucker, but the Marines did it right. With the last 40 years of funding used on the 60, 64, Comanche, etc, can you imagine the size of the Aviation Branch if they’d taken the same path as the Marines? Yes, I specifically excluded the 47 and 58.
We just had a West Coast Y/Z unit with a 22 pass through. Those are some impressive aircraft.
