Overview

This revised text maintains the authors' philosophy of emphasizing the basic principles of the physics of flight, essential analytical techniques, and typical stability and control realities. The addition of homework problems and a solutions manual enhance its usefulness. The many worked examples utilize real airplanes: the Boeing 747; a general aviation airplane; and a STOL airplane. The increased importance of automatic control (AFCS) is reflected in a much-expanded chapter on this subject that prepares the student for work with stability augmentation (SAS), autopilots and guidance systems.
