E-Book Aerodynamics Naval Aviator

The traditional text for Navy pilots; this is the definitive source on aerodynamics and engineering theory as it applies to low and high speed flight operations and is completely applicable for all pilots.

The classic book on aerodynamics and flight engineering from the pilot's perspective; written by the US Navy as a primary textbook for naval pilots.

This book covers the basic principles of flight theory in both low and high speed regimes. Airflow theory, airfoil design, high lift devices, induced and parasitic drag, stall patterns, climb and sink performance, thrust and power, control & stability are all covered in subsonic, transonic, and supersonic conditions. Somewhat technical, although mathematics is kept to the minimum level required to understand the topics from an operational point of view.
