aero resource materials:books

Hello all.We've been kicking Hucho's book around alot at ecomodder and I wanted to throw out some additional titles that members may find of interest.Many of these books were "Reference" material at libraries and could not be checked out.Some I obtained through inter-library loan,and copied with the library copy machine.This was in the days before the internet,Amazon.com,and ebay,so today members may today,may have a shot at owning these titles.Each book has it's own merits.Some will literally blow your mind! So here's some of them: (1) THE RESISTANCE OF THE AIR AND AVIATION by Gustav Alexander Eiffel,published 1910 (French),1st English translation,1912.(2) AERODYNAMIC DRAG,by Sighard F. Hoerner,published by author,printed by The Otterbein Press,Dayton,Ohio,U.S.A.,1951, (3) AERODYNAMIK DES KRAFTFAHRZEUGS by Freiherr Reinhard Koenig-Fachsenfeld, VERLAG DER MOTOR RUNDSCHAU, UMSCHAU VERLAG- FRANKFURT Am Main,Germany,1951.(4) Low-Speed Wind Tunnel Testing by Alan Pope and John J. Harper,John Wiley & Sons,Inc.,New York,Copyright 1966,ISBN 0 471 69392 8. (5) THE AUTOMOTIVE AERODYNAMIC HANDBOOK by Henry Clyde Landa,Copyright by H.C.Landa et al ,printed by and offered by The Film Instruction Company of America,2901 S.Wentworth Ave.,Milwaukee,WI 53207,U.S.A., Telephone (414) 482-0738 (as of 1987),ISBN 0-931974-14-3.If you haven't seen these,they're worth a look.
