Aaron Posted February 19, 2003 Share Posted February 19, 2003 Great book, Though some of the commentary is a bit dated (1943). I think if Herr Langewiesche saw a Cozy He'd be sure it was a new kind of "safety plane" (and he'd be right) but he'd also look at the gear and prop and conclude the cockpit is backwards. A Defiant or Boomerang would throw him way out of joint no doubt. So what next? "Theory of Wing Sections", "Fundamentals of Aerodynamics"...Any recommendations for good books?

Aaron Posted February 19, 2003 Author Share Posted February 19, 2003 It's not the right time yet. I'm one of those people who dives into projects at 100 mph, only to loose interest in a few months. I made myself a promise that I wouldn't buy the plans until a cooling off period of 6 months had gone by-That puts my check into Nat right around my 32nd birthday in May (Happy birthday to me!)
