This book is used for my third-year course, AerE 355-Aircraft Flight Dynamics and Control.All of my fellow classmates agree that this book leaves much to be desired.From day one, we joked, "This book is 1/3 the size of my other texts, yet twice the price... every page better be pure gold."It is not gold.It leaves many things undefined or ill-defined.I have never spent more time in a book searching for useful definitions.The reason I give it two stars is because no book can be as bad as ...

- Look for Simplicity in Flight Dynamics in this Book
Flight Dynamics is one of the most important and complicated fields in aerospace engineering. At my university KFUPM, students taking AE 426 (Flight Dynamics) are required to do 3 projects to pass the course. For these reasons, I have purchased 4 books in flight dynamics. Dynamics of Flight is one of these books that I would love to comment on in this review. Below is a list of points that summarizes my personal opinion about this book.
1)Compared to other flight dynamics book I used, Simplicity ... Read More

- Fit for beginners for learning dynamics of flight.
"Dynamics of Fligth, Stability and Control" is a basic book for beginners who want to learn dynamics of flight.It doesn't have too many complicated equations and formula, but using simple phrases and sentensesto make readers can access easily.As my junior-college text book, I thinkthis book is worthy.
