Aircraft Wings

[LovePhysics]

Do you guys know of any books with research on aircraft wings? I would like a book which contains comparisons between many types of wings, with their advantages/disadvantages weighed out against one another.

No, but I might know something about it. (Used to work with this stuff before.)

Some books that I have not red.

google NACA for foil shapes
construction is a whole different subject
wood and cloth, all metal, plastics, combos of each
mostly depends on speeds and loads
