Hi all,
Does anybody have a dusty copy of this book they could either lend me or flog off to me?

I have a 1972 copy in good condition looking for a nice home. Send me a PM and I'll arrange to get it to you.

If you are still in Unzud you can get a copy from Tech Books in Newmarket - Auckland. They sometimes have them in stock or they can order one in for you.

Is it a required text for something you are studying? (It was for me at one time).
I have the 1990 version, though plan to hold onto it, though the reason I ask is that it's not a bad book, it's just that the explanations are simply an alternative to other versions, notaby:
Aerodynamics for NAval Aviators (USN), and
AP 3456A Royal Air Force Manual of Flying Vol A The Principles of Flight (RAF, obviously).
Personally, I find the latter the easiest to follow, and the others are a variation on a theme, though having them and their alternative explanations has helped from time to to time. I think the RAAF reprinted the 3456 series as the DI)AF) AAP 8131 series for local consumption.

I picked a copy up once, opened it to the first page and then put it straight down! Flying isn't meant to be that difficult...;)
