The basics of a fixed wing airplane are well explained in this book. The history, configuration, atmosphere, orientation, design of aerospace elements, physics of airplane, control and propulsion are discussed. The book is one of the first steps while building for aerospace knowledge.
by David J. Peery
This book provides basics of structures for aerospace elements which include elasticity, vehicle material properties and basics of finite element method as well. The stress and strain developed within the airplane configuration, such as the fixed wing, are explained in detail. The author provides solutions which require application of advanced mathematics.

The basics of aerodynamics for an airplane are discussed in this book. Incompressible and compressible flows over the airplane are discussed in detail. Also, the resulting partial differential equation are derived and solved.
by Ahmed F. El-Sayed
The basic propulsion theories of an aircraft and spacecraft are discussed in this book. Number of engines which have been used in an aircraft and space craft are explained. The focus is also kept on design parameters and solutions of resulting governing differential equations are provided.
Automatic control
by Robert C. Nelson
This book provides basics of stability and control system of an aircraft. The stability and control are explained with mathematical model and theories. Design vision is also kept in perspective.
by R. L. Bisplinghoff
Aeroelasticity requires basics of solid mechanics, structures and aerodynamics at the same time. Book provides advanced mathematical solutions for aeroelastic problems. Few problems, which needs to be solved numerically provide an area of research both in computational and experimental fields.
