The first edition of Aircraft Flight, published in 1989 broke new ground in the field of technical aviation literature by providing accurate physical, rather than mathematical, descriptions of the principles of aircraft flight.
The book has subsequently established itself as a popular and respected introduction to the study of aeronautics, and is now on the recommended reading lists for aerospace and aeronautical engineering courses at a large number of Universities and Colleges around the world.
In this third edition, the text and illustrations have been updated, and some important improvements have been incorporated. As an aid to student project work, the characteristics of three representative types of aerofoil section have been added in a new appendix.
