Now in its Fourth Edition, Flight Theory and Aerodynamics is the classic textbook that connects the theory and physics of flight science to what a pilot experiences in the cockpit. While other books on the market are designed for engineering students, Flight Theory and Aerodynamics is written for students with little mathematical background, using basic alebra and trigonometry to explain the basic principles of aerodynamics and physics. Concepts covered include atmosphere, altitude, airspeed, lift, drag, applications for jet and propellor aircraft, stability controls, takeoff, landing, and other maneuvers. The Fourth Edition includes updated graphics and new pedagogy like learning objectives, real world example vignettes, and key concept summaries to help engage students. End of chapter review questions and online instructor resources help reinforce understanding of the topics discussed.
