Understanding Polars Without Math A guide to getting the most from polar diagrams by Bill & Bunny (B2) Kuhlman, with Bill Kubiak Finally,
a mathless way to get the most from all of those squiggly lines!
Through a series of easy lessons, you learn methods of determining a
particular airfoil's maximum L/D, and other pieces of information
necessary to the design process, including the effects of aspect ratio
on performance. This book was written for those who have been "turned
off" by the mathematical symbols and formulae of textbooks. We promise
