Evo 7, was unable to peruse the current version of Flight Without Formulae, the first edition published 1940 seems well written and inclusive. However, as I haven’t seen the new edition, my comments on it would be suspect. Kermode’s other book, Flight Mechanics is no way heavy on the math and seems an okay reference on the basics of aerodynamics. I do not wish to get myself in trouble with the other people posting on this thread, we all have our favorite references for individual reasons. My reasons include a general dislike of Bernoulli in explaining lift, preferring vorticity, the Magnus effect, and yes Kutta-Joukowsky. Therefore, I still recommend Aircraft Flight. Whether you do purchase Kemode’s book or others it probably is tax deductible and the only time you have too many books is when moving. Happy Reading
