Is there an online source for "Aerodynamics for Naval Aviators"?
Blue skies to all.
One of the best manuals ever written on the subject matter. I don't know
if
there is an online source for it, but just be aware, it's a 416 page book!

Everyone here seem to hold this book in high regard, I am looking forward to
reading it..
I have been reading Mechanics of Flight by A C Kermode, it is challenging
but interesting study. He claims AoA is American usage and speaks of angle
of incidence and riggers angle of incidence. I had previously noted that
Wilbur spoke of aoa as angle of incidence, I suspected changed usage but it
seems to still be current in England?
