This century-old man stil exerts his strong and power influence on this tumultuous era. In 1907, a French engeneer succeeded in piloting the first helicopter.Since then, helicopters have played an important role in the military and war history of the world. Helicopter was initially used for air detection, and the first time whenit was applied into war was during the World War One. During the World War II, Germany used helicopters to detect on a large scale. Helicopters just like atomic bombs also escalaed the destructive effect of war. Is it a devil? Should this 100-year-old monster be executed?

I think there will always be a demand for helicopters to transport troops into remote areas.
