Review: Great flight mechanics book! - This book covers a lot of fundemental theory of flight dynamics. Great resource for professional or graduate students. Derivations are very informative! Would recommend for anyone interested in flight mechanics!
Review: Good prank - My idiot brother in law wants to become a pilot, but he is 19 with no drivers license. Got him this for Christmas. He read about 3 pages and hasn’t picked it up for over a year. Great practical joke.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good prank
*by W***Y on September 14, 2021*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Aerospace Engineering Classic
*by A***N on May 27, 2013*

One of the Aerospace Engineering classic texts. Written by Bernard Etkin who is well known in the field of stability and control. This book starts from the fundamentals of mathematics and control systems theory and vectors etc... I love the way of putting the equations of motion in many forms with this input/output form, which is only found within Etkin books (it is like a trade mark). Covering of modeling of forces and moments is the best and puts it in a simple way although this isn't an ways subject at all, Same thing for static stability. The thing that could be done much better is the topics of dynamic stability and solution of equations of motion.. I think it could be much better to expand it, this book is really poor in explaining the physics of dynamic motion. I couldn't find a detailed explanation of lateral modes... Also it lacks examples and could use a better index. Even after saying all that I can say for studying Flight Dynamics this is the first text you should read or obtain, the price is very low when considering similar texts, so according to price this is the best and I recommend it if you don't want to buy books that cost 100$.
