I am looking for recommendations for reference/textbooks on flight dynamics.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Well sure. I just didn't know if anyone more familiar with the field had any suggestions about which options are better than others.
 
I would have thought you are the go-to person for such a question.

In what context this book will be used and who is it for?

I spend my days on mostly fluid physics, not actual flight. And my original background was mechanical engineering, not aerospace. I have some nefarious plans to expand into actually flying things in the future, so I'm just exploring what options are out there as references to help get me up to speed.

@dlgoff hasn't been around in a month or two, but pinging him because his daughter is a flight instructor.
