The Anatomy of the Airplane, Second Edition
Publisher AIAA | 460 pages | Date 2001 | ISBN: 1563472864 | PDF | 5.1 MB
The Anatomy of the Aeroplane was started in 1960 as a set of supplementary notes to the author’s annual lectures on Aero-Structures given at the Empire Test Pilots’ School, at Farnborough in Hampshire. The lectures were intended to give embryo test pilots an insight into the reasons for aircraft not being shaped in ways that fitted the often more elegant theories. In so doing the inherent capabilities and limitations of an aeroplane became more apparent. The capabilities and limitations were seen to be functions of specific requirements: those formalized statements of human needs that cause aircraft to be made as useful and as safe as possible within the ‘state-of-the-art’ at a given time. The seeming dichotomy of the two worlds of theory and practice — usually more apparent to the practical man than the academician — is resolved by looking at the development of an aircraft as a response to a set of requirements.
