Starting with the basic principles of propeller operation, this book discusses the four types of propellers used today in naval aviation. There is information on the two-position controllable pitch propeller, the constant speed propeller, the hydromatic quick-feathering propeller, and the electric propeller. In conclusion, there is a section on trouble shooting--specifically for hydromatic and electric propellers.

Commercial Airplane Design Principles is a succinct, focused text covering all the information required at the preliminary stage of aircraft design: initial sizing and weight estimation, fuselage design, engine selection, aerodynamic analysis, stability and control, drag estimation, performance analysis, and economic analysis. The text places emphasis on making informed choices from an array of competing options, and developing the confidence to do so. Shows the use of standard, empirical, and classical methods in support of the design process Explains the preparation of a professional quality design report Provides a sample outline of a design report Can be used in conjunction with Sforza, Manned Spacecraft Design Principles to form a complete course in Aircraft/Spacecraft Design
