Somebody's been reading "Aerodynamics for Naval Aviators"

I was required to read it 50 years ago while in Preflight
Class 12-58, NAS Pensacola. I still have my copy.



I have one given to me when I was 13..

You can't beat those basic military flight manuals. I read through the
Army Basic Rotorcraft manual (Can't remember the title)before I started
my PP R-H instructions and I was WAY ahead of the other guy that started
lessons the same day I did.
