You know how to fly a Cessna and fix a Lycoming. But you might not know the difference between Vmc (minimum control speed) and Vs (stall speed) in a design sense. This book teaches the physics behind the numbers on your checkride.
Conclusion: MTOW ≈ 730 kg is a reasonable starting point.
The author brings over 25 years of experience, including roles as Chief Aerodynamicist at Cirrus Aircraft . Comparison to Other Classics
It is important to distinguish between legitimate PDF access (purchased from publishers like Butterworth-Heinemann, or accessed via university login) and pirated copies. Dr. Gudmundsson actively supports the engineering community, and royalties fund ongoing research. However, the demand for the PDF highlights a real market need for a digital, affordable version of technical knowledge.
Contains unique safety-oriented design checklists and "common faults and fixes" derived from industry experience. The Second Edition (Released 2021/2022)
