Stanley Hiller's life should be a ten-hour miniseries. Read about his life from boyhood through helicopters and finally in corporate turnarounds. Utterly amazing.

My dad worked for Saunders Roe at Eastleigh (Southampton Airport) in the South of Britain. The Xroe Rotorcycle was there for evaluation and testing by one particular pilot, Harry Phillips ?? if I recall correctly, and he was badly burned in an accident whilst flying one of these. I remember being intrigued that it was designed for commando type operations. This would have been early sixties. I was a hangar kid who struck lucky many times when one of the pilots would notice me and say "fancy a flip old boy?" My lifelong love of flying stemmed from those flights, still flying my Foxbat these days. 😎

My father worked for Hiller when I was born and my earliest memories were looking at the pages of a UH-12E maintenance manual. I actually met Stan Hiller when I was very young and remember seeing the hornet fly in that field in Palo Alto. I saw Santa Claus arrive in a Hiller helicopter at the Christmas part at Moffett Field!

Tip jet rotors produce no torque effect. Physics.
