Information is information and as 'rare' as aerodynamic documents go,whatever is in print is all grist for the mill.And of value,anyway you look at it.
You won't regret purchasing the book.
Hucho's made at least one contextual error in his book(s), regarding Walter Lay's research and results.
Considering the vast amount of material he's had to cover though,you've got to cut a person like him some slack.
Tamai may have 'slipped' with his choice of wording.A technical editor or jury would help catch things.Perhaps (and hopefully) he will flesh out the context in which he makes his points.
