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.
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 and stability are all covered in subsonic, transonic and supersonic conditions. While somewhat technical, mathematics is kept to the level required for the commercial and military pilot so as to understand the topics from an operational point of view.
