So You Want To Fly Helicopters
Based on Sporty’s original helicopter training video, So You Want to Fly Helicopters brings helicopter flight into your living room like you've never seen before. Almost two hours of video thoroughly prepares you for the thrills and challenges of rotary-wing flight and help you master the aerodynamic concepts.

Features:
• Completely redesigned with vivid 3D animations
• All new exciting in-flight video
• Prepares you to pass the helicopter Private Pilot exam
• Includes preflight, basics of flight, hovering, taxiing, takeoffs and landings
• Also covers maneuvers, weight and balance, autorotation, emergency procedures, systems and components, and FARs
• Discusses fundamentals of helicopter navigation and cross-country procedures
• Fly the Robinson R22 and R44, Schweizer 269, and the Bell 206 JetRanger.

Helicopter Cross-Country
Helicopter Cross-Country is a fast-paced video that takes you across varying terrain and through changing weather. You'll learn the various considerations for choosing a route as well as the techniques Don has gathered over the years to make cross-country flights safer and more enjoyable. Covers everything from takeoff to touchdown—even a steep approach-to-landing at a mountainous helistop. This video is dominated by in-flight footage and clear graphics, which makes learning enjoyable.

Advanced Helicopter Flying
In Advanced Helicopter Flying, helicopter instructor Don Fairbanks takes you into the world of commercial helicopter operations and demonstrates helicopter flight in hostile terrain such as snow, ice, high grass, water, etc. Our cameras put you at the controls of the popular R22 as well as many of the larger helicopters such as the Bell 222—which demonstrates flight in instrument conditions. See flight performance profiles of military helicopters as well as those flown by many Fortune 500 companies, including Sikorsky, Agusta and McDonnell Douglas. Explore the latest technologies and operational considerations of turbine engines, stability augmentations systems, GPS, tilt rotor and tilt wing equipment, sling loads and more. You'll also ride along on a ferry flight in the A109C to Phoenix, AZ. Covers the unique operational considerations of both urban and rural helicopter flying as you cross over the Continental Divide and the desert Southwest.

So You Want to Fly Twins
One of the most exciting, useful and just plain fun ratings a pilot can obtain, the multiengine rating, is also one of the most challenging. Let Sporty’s guide you through each step of the rating, from basic aerodynamics to flight maneuvers. Throughout, exciting in-flight footage, from both inside and outside the cockpit, combines with state-of-the-art 3D graphics to explain every element of multiengine flying.

• Designed specifically for pilots adding a multiengine rating to their private or commercial certificate
• Step into the cockpit popular twin trainers, including the Piper Aztec and Seminole, Beech Baron and Duchess, Cessna 310 and Diamond Twin Star
• See every maneuver required on the flight test, both VFR and IFR
• Learn about important multiengine systems, like fuel, hydraulics and electrical
• Explore the various aspects of flight planning and performance calculations

This comprehensive program is much more than just test prep—you’ll learn how to manage the complex systems and higher speeds that come with twins.

So You Want to Fly Seaplanes
In So You Want to Fly Seaplanes, you’ll travel to the famous Jack Brown’s Seaplane Base in Florida for a complete look at what flying seaplanes is all about. Climb into the back seat of a Piper J-3 Cub on floats for a pilot’s eye view of all the maneuvers required for the FAA checkride. Learn the different taxi techniques you’ll use, how to read the wind and the water, and how to master water takeoffs and landings.

Along the way, you’ll get real world tips to help advance your skills from noted seaplane instructors Jon Brown and John Rennie. Also includes interactive extras for more detailed information about key topics.

Packed with over an hour of in-flight footage and full motion graphics, So You Want to Fly Seaplanes is perfect for anyone interested in the world of water flying.

So You Want to Fly Gliders
Perfect for power pilots who want to discover the joy of soaring--or for beginning glider students--this new video shows you “what you should know” about flying gliders. Bob Wander, noted glider instructor and best-selling author, joins the Sporty’s Academy team to take you into the cockpit of several training gliders. With exciting in-flight footage, you’ll see all the maneuvers from inside and outside the aircraft, and you’ll ride along for a self-powered launch, an aero-tow and a winch launch. Also covers aerodynamics, stalls, spins, speed-to-fly, spirals, all training maneuvers, soaring weather (including ridge, wave, convergence and thermal soaring) and much more. State of the art 3D graphics and animations are used throughout to explain complicated subjects. This comprehensive program will prepare you for your FAA glider checkride and beyond.
