How come helicopters take off vertically?
Well, they don't always. The advantage of the design of the helicopter is that it CAN take-off and land vertically and does not require a long runway. That allows it to delivery injured patients directly to the roof of a hospital. Many helicopter are equipped with small wheels that allow it to taxi. This also allows them to take-off and land with some roll. When a helicopter is heavily loaded, it usually takes off by at an angle and not vertically. This also allows the pilot to watch for other traffic. VTOL or Vertical Take Of and Landing was developed to provide access to any remote or space limited landing zone.
Why was the helicopter inveted?
So aircraft could land and take off in confined spaces and off small ships.
