Book Description
In print for more than 55 years, this classic book has been treasured by generations of pilots for its accurate, intelligent and useful analysis of the art of flying. Its main objective is to help the student become a good pilot quickly, and to help the instructor understand more thoroughly the fundamentals of this profession. Careful reading of the book is the equivalent of several hundred hours of flight practice.
Synopsis
What's in "Stick and Rudder": the invisible secret of all heavier-than-air flight - the Angle of Attack, what it is, and why it can't be seen. How lift is made, and what the pilot has to do with it; why airplanes stall; how do you know you're about to stall? The landing approach. How the pilot's eye functions in judging the approach. The visual clues by which an experienced pilot unconsciously judges: how you can quickly learn to use them. "The Spot that does not move." This is the first statement of this phenomenon. A foolproof method of making a landing approach across pole lines and trees. The elevator and the throttle. One controls the speed, the other controls climb and descent. Which is which? The paradox of the glide. By pointing the nose down less steeply, you descend more steeply. By pointing the nose down more steeply, you can glide further.What's the rudder for? The rudder does Not turn the airplane the way a boat's rudder turns the boat. Then what does it do? How a turn is flown. The role of ailerons, rudder, and elevator in making a turn. The landing - how it's made. The visual clues that tell you where the ground is.The "tail-dragger" landing gear and what's tricky about it. This is probably the only analysis of tail-draggers now available to those who want to fly one. The tricycle landing gear and what's so good about it. A strong advocacy of the tricycle gear written at a time when almost all civil airplanes were taildraggers. Why the airplane doesn't feel the wind. Why the airplane usually flies a little sidewise. This book also includes: a chapter on Air Accidents by Leighton Collins, founder and editor of "Air Facts". His analyses of aviation's safety problems have deeply influenced pilots and aeronautical engineers and have contributed to the benign characteristics of today's airplane."Stick and Rudder" is the first exact analysis of the art of flying ever attempted. It has been continuously in print for thirty-three years, and has enjoyed steadily increasing sales. Flight instructors have found that the book does indeed explain important phases of the art of flying, in a way the learner can use. It shows precisely what the pilot does when he flies, just how he does it, and why. These basics are largely unchanging.The book therefore is applicable to large airplanes and small, old airplanes and new, and is of interest not only to the learner, but also to the accomplished pilot and to the instructor himself.When "Stick and Rudder" first came out, some of its contents were considered highly controversial. In recent years, its formulations have become widely accepted. Pilots and flight instructors have found that the book works. Today several excellent manuals offer the pilot accurate and valuable technical information. But "Stick and Rudder" remains the leading think-book on the art of flying. One thorough reading of it should be the equivalent of many hours of practice.

Stick & Rudder is an all time favorite about how an airplane flies. Written over 50 years ago, it explains in a very easy-to-understand manner the basic four forces of flight, the three axis of motion, how an airfoil works, how basic aerodynamics affects flight, and how to perform the fundamental maneuvers. The information is as valid now as the day it was written. As a ground and flight instructor, I have used this as a basic text for all my students for the past 12 years. Discusses in detail straight & level flight, climbs and descents, turns, stalls, takeoffs, landings, torque, various aircraft configurations, and piloting techniques. An absolute "must have" for every pilot from Recreational to Airline Transport certificate, this is the FIRST book every aspiring pilot should read.

Kein Lehrbuch aus der heutigen Zeit kann dieses Buch übertreffen. Mit klarer Logik und kurzweiligen Worten werden hier die Essentials des Fliegens rübergebracht.

I had trouble handling stalls...this book definitely helped me understand why a stall happens, and in turn that helped me recover better when I perform them. Don't let the publishing date on this book fool you...it's holds just a true today, even with the evolution of general aviation aircraft.

This is by far the best book written on what is actually going on when piloting an aircraft. A few sections are somewhat out of date, such as the lengthy yet compelling section in... Lesen Sie weiter...

THE pilot's Bible!
Without a doubt the best book on piloting I've read. Reminds us of the importants of old fashion flying techniques that our young flight instructors never learned.

the best book on flying that I ever read.
I began flying in 1944 and am still an active pilot in 1999. The is clearly the best book ever on how a plane flys and how you fly a plane. Lesen Sie weiter...

the fact that it is still relevant and in print validates it
I used this book in ground school at Rhode Island State College (before it was University) in 1940 and in flight school in 1941. Lesen Sie weiter...

The Definitive Book - a Classic
This is the book that a *lot* of pilots learned from since 1940. It's still good over 50 years later.

The most "user friendly" book on Piloting ever written.
One would think that any book on piloting written so long ago, just couldn't be useful. This is far from the case. What Mr. Langewiesche has done is amazing. Lesen Sie weiter...
