This is an absolutely terrible book to try to learn from. Our professor has not given us the 81 pages of corrections, so we don't know if we can even look at the examples to try and model after them. It truly makes it impossible to learn when you can't even trust what you're learning from.

This book is so full of mistakes, it baffles me how it ever made it to print. There are 81 pages of corrections that you will want to get from the author if you buy this book.

I went to ERAU where the main author teaches. He's an extremely smart person , but he's out of touch with reality and practicality. With that in mind, it's a very difficult book to read, not including the many errors in it. As far as "aircraft" structural analysis is concerned, this book covers extremely little. It's basically a generic structural analysis book with an airplane on the cover. If you want real aircraft structural analysis books, get Bruhn and Peery.

First of all I have the teacher that wrote this book. On the first day of class he gives you the 81 pages of typos that are in the book and their corrections. It is poorly written and full of mistakes. In fact almost all of his lecture is going through the book and showing penciled in corrections and explaining why the book is wrong.
