<p>Classical aerodynamics is a compulsory study subject for pilots at all levels of experience. Propeller Aerodynamics is a subset of this fascinating subject. Propellers have their unique aerodynamic terminology, forces and handling requirements, knowledge of which all pilots must be aware of to safely handle the aircraft they are flying. Incorrect propeller handling can cause damage to the aircraft and reduce performance efficiency. Most aerodynamic text books only give a brief view of propeller aerodynamics; however this book Propeller Aerodynamics delves more deeply into this subject. The book covers the history and operation of aircraft propellers, prop pitch, thrust, efficiency, aircraft stability, prop forces, constant-speed units and more. This is all essential reading for the pilot progressing to more advanced high-performance aircraft.</p>

Aircraft Museums of the United Kingdom has been written for the aviation enthusiast with an interest in aircraft from the past. Aircraft range throughout the museums from 1909 up to recent years. Thirty-five museums are listed within this book and each is presented on its merits for the aircraft displayed. A brief description of each museum describes aircraft of special interest, museum presentation and lighting quality for photographing the aircraft. Also included is a list of aircraft held by each museum with over 300 photographs included, plus address and contact details for each museum. The aircraft museums are all part of the UK's aviation heritage to be preserved for the enjoyment of the present and future generations. All are worth a visit for their exhibits of aircraft from days gone by.
