This book provides a comprehensive and integrated exposure to airplane performance, stability, dynamics and flight control. The text supports a two-semester course for senior undergraduate or first-year graduate students in aerospace engineering.

Basic aerodynamics, dynamics and linear control systems are presented. In this text, the aeroplane is assumed to have a rigid body ­ elastic deformations and their effects on airplane motion are not considered.

Solved examples illustrate theory and design methods. Several exercise problems with answers are included in each chapter to help the reader acquire problem-solving skills. In addition, Matlab tools are used for the control design.
