This book is an excellent reference for anyone that is interested in having a better understanding of how wings or blades work. It also contains appendices with useful airfoil data. This book is worth having in your aerospace reference library.

Isto aqui é viagem ao tempo em que computadores digitais ainda não existiam, forçando os engenheiros da época a tirarem o máximo de proveito possível da teoria e dos experimentos. Esse é o único livro na minha biblioteca que se refere a computadores humanos como uma sugestão pra auxiliar nos cálculos ao invés de uma simples curiosidade histórica. A matemática desse livro é também bastante difícil - são interessantes as feitiçarias fluidodinâmicas que foram sendo desenvolvidas em base da necessidade de se obter teorias que fizessem ao menos um pouco de sentido. Algum dia que estiver mais paciente quero tentar entender melhor esse material

Was great. Integration of experimental airfoils and theoretical, thin airfoil theory, make this textbook, an absolute necessity for any senior undergraduate or graduate aerospace engineering student. Yeah.
