This textbook presents the elements of applied aerodynamics and
aeronautical engineering which relate directly to flight training
and general flight operations. Originally published by the U.S.
Navy and revised in 1965. A long-established U.S. Navy publication
also used by the U.S. Air Force as well as by the FAA as a source
reference for their own publications, for more than 50 years this
textbook has been a definitive source that communicates the
complexities of applied aerodynamics and aeronautical engineering
for both the beginner and the experienced pilot. Flight safety and
effectiveness depends greatly on the understanding and appreciation
of how and why an airplane flies, and this resource teaches
aerodynamic principles, providing the foundation for developing
precise flying techniques and operational procedures. The
information in "Aerodynamics for Naval Aviators" is applicable to
flight training, transition training, reciprocating and
turbine-powered airplanes, and general flying operations. It offers
the elements of both theory and application, covering basic
aerodynamics, high-speed aerodynamics, airplane performance,
stability and control, operation strength limitations, and the
application of aerodynamics to specific problems of flying, such as
the region of reversed command, wind shear, effects of ice and
frost, ground effect, and collision avoidance. Also included are an
index and a list of selected references.
