Pilots, aviation students, kitplane builders, aircraft fleet operators, and aeronautical engineers can all determine how their propeller-driven airplanes will perform, under any conditions, by using the step-by-step bootstrap approach introduced in this book. A few routine flying maneuvers (climbs, glides, a level speed run) will give you the necessary nine numbers. High-school-level calculations then give you performance numbers with much greater detail and accuracy than any other method or manual—for your individual aircraft! Many practical flying topics, concepts that will make you a safer and more efficient pilot, are found in this book for the first time. Using the bootstrap approach, and other calculation aids explained in simple terms, this book will let you accurately predict your airplane's V speeds as well as its rates or angles of climb or descent at any airspeed, any weight, any density altitude, wings banked or wings level, full or partial throttle. This book gives you in-depth understanding of the performance of light aircraft.
