The most exciting moment for an aeronautical engineer is when his
or her
design becomes a working
aircraft, the endpoint of a journey that begins in
the classroom. This textbook
provides the resources that students need to
understand the methods and
thought processes involved in designing aircraft.
Students learn through the use
of specific analytical principles and practical examples taught to them
through examples, case
studies, and corresponding problems to solve.
For professors, this textbook comes
complete with end-of-chapter homework problems that provide
a summary of the
concepts and features contained in the chapters. The problems provide students
with an excellent opportunity to analyze and synthesize industry examples,
ensuring they understand
the key concepts and their applications.
