Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - This is a riveting children's story that follows the daring exploits of Dolph, a courageous U.S. Coast Guard HH-65 'Dolphin' rescue helicopter, and his skilled pilot, Gwen, as she leads the entire crew on a life-saving mission.Dolph, Gwen, and crew respond to an emergency signal from a fishing boat. Zooming towards the boat's location, unexpected challenges arise when Dolph's rotor blades are damaged in-flight. With quick thinking and excellent judgment, they navigate through the danger, ultimately making a safe emergency landing in a farmer's field, avoiding a herd of cows in the process. A curious baby calf befriends the very noisy orange 'bird' who lands in its pasture.Valuable lessons about the importance of staying calm in the face of changing circumstances, problem-solving, resilience, and teamwork are demonstrated in this highly engaging story.This empowering story not only celebrates the bravery of Coast Guard heroes but also highlights the vital role of women in aviation. Gwen, a talented pilot, leads the charge to with confidence and expertise, showing young readers that women can excel in high-stakes, action-packed environments. Gwen symbolizes what it means to 'fly like a girl.'Illustrated with vibrant imagery that captures the thrill of flying, this story is a captivating read for children of all ages, especially those interested in airplanes, helicopters, how things work, the jobs they perform, and the people who fly them.The author, Mr. Darcy Guyant, is a retired U. S. Coast Guard HH65 Dolphin helicopter pilot. This story is an exciting true story based on a real-life rescue mission flown by Mr. Darcy and his crew in a Coast Guard Helicopter just like Dolph, but without eyes and a mouth, of course.This book also serves as a excellent introduction to STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) lessons and discussions on the differences between airplanes and helicopters and how they fly.Lift MechanismAirplanes relies on wings to generate lift by air flowing over the wings.Helicopters generate lift by rotating it's wings (rotor blades) very fast through the air.Forward MotionAirplanes are propelled forward by jets or propellersHelicopters can hover in place and move in any direction. Forward motion is achieved by tilting the rotor blades forward.Control SurfacesAirplanes employs control surfaces such as ailerons, elevators, and rudders to control roll, pitch, and yaw respectively.Helicopters utilizes cyclic, collective, and tail rotor controls.Speed and AltitudeAirplanes are typically capable of higher speeds and altitudes due to its aerodynamic design and propulsion system.Helicopters generally, operates at lower speeds and altitudes but offers versatility in maneuverability and the ability to land and take off vertically.Runway RequirementAirplanes requires a runway for takeoff and landing due to its forward motion for lift.Helicopters can take off and land vertically, eliminating the need for a runway. It can operate in confined spaces and land in remote areas.StabilityAirplanes are generally more stable in flight, especially at high speeds, due to inherent aerodynamic stability.Helicopters requires constant pilot input to maintain stability, particularly during hover and low-speed flight.'If a man is in need of rescue, an airplane can come in and throw flowers on him, and that's just about all. But a could come in and save his life.' Igor Sikorsky.…
