Nelson R. Flight Stability and Automatic Control 2ed 1998

Textbook in PDF format

In the second edition, the first six chapters from the first edition were improved. These chapters cover the topics of static stability, flight control,
aircraft dynamics and flying qualities. This was accomplished by including more worked-out example problems, additional problems at the end of each chapter and new material to provide additional insight on the subject. The major change in the text is the addition of an expanded section on automatic control theory and its application to flight control system design
