Good Basic Textbook
21 Mar 2007
Format:Paperback
I am an aeronautical engineering graduate and have been working in the aviation industry for over 20 years after graduation. I have read this book and found it to be a good reference book.
This is a good basic textbook for those studying aerodynamics at undergraduate level. The author does a commendable job of clearly explaining the aerodynamic concepts which provide a good foundation on this subject for engineers.

Excellent introductory text!
9 May 2010
Format:Paperback
Milne's book provides an excellent introduction to the study of inviscid airflow using potential theory. The text begins with 2D airfoil analysis via complex transformation techniques (conformal mapping). It then progresses to 3D finite wing theory using lifting line and lifting surface theory. I concludes with chapters on wind tunnel corrections, propellers, swept wings (sub and supersonic flow), and basic stability theory. A reference book dealing with conformal mapping and complex numbers may be helpful. For this I easily recommend another 5-star book, "Complex Variables and the Laplace Transform for Engineers" by Wilbur R. Lepage.
