Forward Flight Performance

Forward Flight Performance is a rotorcraft flight mechanics concept that characterizes the aerodynamic efficiency, power requirements, and dynamic behavior of a rotorcraft in sustained forward translational flight, distinguished from other flight regimes by the progressive asymmetry of lift and relative airflow across the rotor disk.
