After this the reader is taken on a simulated test flight in his imagination as subsonic speeds are practically demonstrated. Then the author deals with flight at transonic speeds, at supersonic speeds and finally with missiles, satellites and spaceships.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith this book as his guide the student or engineering apprentice will find that he can learn the fundamentals upon which flight depends without the need for delving into higher mathematics; the cadet learning to fly, and even the experienced pilot, will find the answers to his queries and a new interest in the problems that he meets with in flight.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"A C Kermode","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53114254557530,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/3015\/9446\/files\/image1_38da6133-f003-4f9d-93cf-5f1848776ede.jpeg?v=1765969008","url":"https:\/\/aviation.brussels\/products\/mechanics-of-flight","provider":"aviation.brussels","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
