In contrast with fixed-wing aircraft , this allows the helicopter to take off and land vertically, to hover, and to fly forwards, backwards and laterally. These attributes allow helicopters to be used in congested or isolated areas where fixed-wing aircraft would not be able to take off or land. The capability to efficiently hover for extended periods of time allows a helicopter to accomplish tasks that fixed-wing aircraft and other forms of vertical takeoff and landing aircraft cannot perform.

    Extractions: var isReferenceAnswers = true; BodyLoad('s'); On this page Library Military History Companion: Home Library Military History Companion The helicopter has emerged as an important addition to air power and the conduct of military operations since the end of WW II, and has become crucial to modern-day armed forces. It offers tremendous flexibility and mobility to troops and has been particularly useful in low-intensity operations and in providing support to units operating in dense terrain or terrain accessible only with great difficulty. The helicopter's ability to operate from hastily prepared clearings or in rugged country which would otherwise preclude the use of direct air support has been its greatest asset, although the helicopter has been deployed in a wide variety of roles for which its particular attributes make it well suited. More progress was made in the inter-war era in the development of the autogiro, which had an unpowered overhead rotor blade driven by the airflow from a conventional tractor propeller in the nose. Aside from an initial starting rotation the rotors were driven by the airflow only, and thus they autorotated. The main advantage of the autogiro was that it solved the torque reaction problem, but a failing was the need for a short take-off run—it could not lift off vertically, nor indeed hover effectively. Juan de la Cierva in particular pioneered the development of the autogiro, and much valuable information was gathered that was later fed into the design of the helicopter.
