Airflow examines and describes the many ways in which modellers and practitioners of a wide range of hobbies and sports (even cricket!) can understand and confront, harness and exploit the physical properties of wind and air. The book's admirable breadth and depth offers something not only for students of many science and technical subjects, but also to the hobbyists and disciples of 'alternative energy'.

Contents:
● The Force Of The Wind
● The Atmosphere
● Streamlining
● Sailing
● Power From The Wind
● Boomerangs
● Spin Bowling
● Kites
● Parachutes
● Aeroplanes
● Gliders
● Helicopters
● Rockets
● Jet Propulsion
● Supersonic Flight
● The Future

The book will be of particular interest to the increasing number of people who are hooked on the thrill and excitement of sports such as yachting, aeromodelling, ballooning, car racing, parachuting, kite flying, boomerang throwing, hang gliding, soaring in sailplanes and power flying.
