Hi Folks!
Do you have any favourite aviation books for engineering, testing, wx, wannabees etc...?
I'm making a best of aviation books list for beginners to profs.
Hear you on the frequency,
and many happy landings in 2004!!!

There's a couple that spring to mind. For the new wannabe, i would recommend:
Flying the Big Jets, by Stanley Stewart
Emergency, by Stanley Stewart
A bit more advanced would be:
Handling the Big Jets by Davies
For those preparing for the ATPLs, I would say:
Jet Engines by Klaus Hunecke
Mechanics of Flight by A.C. Kermode

Thx Guys...!
Beside those books for PPL/CPL/ATPL students - I'm also looking for more detailed books for "aerospace engineering students and pros".
Maybe we have a few Engineers like FTEs (=Flight Test Engineers) among us?

Flight Dynamics Principles by MV Cook (great intro text)
Aircraft stability and control by Babister (written by and for TPs and FTEs)
Helicopter Test & Evaluation by AK Cooke & EWH Fitzpatrick (written by ETPS guys)
Aircraft Control & Simulation by Stevens & Lewis
Feedback Control of Dynamic Systems by Franklin, Powell et al.
Fundamentals of Aerodynamics by Anderson (the only text you'll need for all your aerodynamic needs)
pretty damn expensive though...
