    Important Reference Book for Aircraft Design
  

*by E***O on Reviewed in the United States on January 29, 2006*

Aircraft design is an important subject for those doing a degree course in Aeronautical Engineering. The subject is often offered towards the later stages of the course when students have gained knowledge in some of the core subjects including aerodynamics, aircraft control and stability, aircraft performance, aircraft propulsion and aircraft structures. This book does an excellent job of providing a systematic presentation of the process of aircraft configuration design and optimization in the conceptual design of subsonic aircraft.The book was a valuable guide in my university days in the early 1980s when doing projects in aircraft design. We used to simply refer to the book as Torenbeek, highlighting the fact that the book was considered a classic and ready reference source for those involved in aircraft design studies.The book has a large amount of critical data and various methods of carrying out design calculations. The book focuses on conventional civil subsonic aircraft.I recommended the book for all students doing an Aeronautical Engineering course as well as people who require to learn about initial aircraft design and development. Although the book was written in a university setting, people working in design departments in the aircraft industry should find the book very useful for their work.

    One of the best
  

*by C***R on Reviewed in the United States on September 12, 2008*

This is one of the best resources for the conceptual and preliminary design of aircraft. It is not as thorough as Raymer; however, it covers the design for performance in much greater detail. It also covers engine performance and selection in greater detail than most design texts. You'll find that much of the worthwhile information in other sources is borrowed from Torenbeek.
