Editorial Review:
The ultimate and standard aviation encyclopedia for 43 years. Modern Airmanship covers every subject from aerodynamics, to emergency and survival techniques, to airplane and aerospace structures. It is also the preeminent "how-to" source for all aviation professionals. The Eight Edition, lavishly illustrated, includes the latest information on federal regulations and technical advances. From the theory of flight, airplane and aerospace structures to high performance aircraft and weather, this book covers every topic related to the aviation industry.
Van Sickle's Modern Airmanship Reviews:
Truly, an aviator's bible 
2004-10-18 - This is the All-in-one, Swiss-army-knife reference for pilots. The "must-have" book. This completeness and coprehensiveness does not come at the cost of detail or quality of contained info, to the contrary, it is one of the most accurate books in this field. Whether you are an occasional PPL holder who flies every other weekend or you are an airline pilot who fly for a living, this reference would never leave your side. Worth every cent.
By Myron W. Collier 
2000-02-08 - I have not had an opportunity to review the eight edition of Neil D. Van Sickle's "Modern Airmanship," but I can state unequivocally it is a first class publication. I was privileged to have contributed to several chapters of a previous edition and, thereby, know the accuracy and quality that goes into this book.
