VP-1 VOLKSPLANE EVANS DESIGNERS HANDBOOK

Overview

THE ready source of data used in the field of Lightplane Design. The tools rather than the derivations. Presented in a form useful to the “Eyeball” designer as well as the engineer. This requires the use of approx. methods (good enough) where the classical approach requires an engineering background. Click here to visit the Volksplane aircraft page
