'Handling the Big Jets' by D.P. Davies
...offers an explanation of the significant differences in flying qualities between jet and piston engine transport aeroplanes.
It was an immediate success when it was first published because it removed many of the mysteries which had previously surrounded the flying qualities of big jets.
Written by a former chief test pilot of the United Kingdom Airworthiness Authority it is an invaluable work of reference for all pilots, engineers and enthusiasts.
Flight International Magazine reviewed 'Handling the Big Jets' thus: "this is no dry textbook. It is a tremendous, but notably readable, vade-mecum of jet transport flying qualities and design characteristics intended primarily for pilots who have yet to make the transition to jets, but which is packed with information of value to the most experienced of jet captains."
This book can truly be described as "the best of it's kind in the world".
Packed with photographs, line drawings, tables and graphs.
This edition includes chapters on the Boeing 747 and asymetric flight as well as as up-to-date revisions to the text.
Hard. 324 pages.
