Product Description
Review
"A short section of this work was published in article form in "Sport Aviation" magazine in February 1999. NASA picked up the article for their web site; it is used in several flight schools; and, has been translated into French and Spanish. Further, a New Zealand high school student won his science fair using Anderson's and Eberhardt's work. Wendell Piepgrass, Flight Training Coordinator (flight school): "Not being an engineer, I appreciate very much what you...are doing here, because being able to form visually based concepts is important...." "...this presentation...effectively and clearly puts a very complex subject into terms most persons with a technical interest can understand. I wish...this chapter were a prime requirement for airman certification.
