Description
This textbook is based on a 15-year successful approach to teaching aircraft flight mechanics at the U.S. Air Force Academy. It explains all the concepts and derivations of equations for aircraft flight mechanics. It covers; aircraft performance, static stability, aircraft dynamics stability, and feedback control. The chapters present real world applications and contain problems. Each year the Academy's students are placed with industry, NASA, and Air Force labs and test organizations, and the student reviews are outstanding, illustrating the quality of the author's approach.
