Youngs Laminar Body

[sorenfdk]

Hi everybody,

In his excellent book "Model Aircraft Aerodynamics", Martin Simons mentions a family of so-called laminar bodies designed by Young. I have searched the web for further information regarding these bodies, but haven't been able to find anything.

Is there someone out there who can help me? URLs, books, papers - anything would be helpful.

Kind regards,

Søren Flening

Googling "young aerodynamic* laminar" got some hits.

Also Amazon books - He seems to have written one book.

On checking- the Amazon address (copied and pasted!) doesn't work .
Search Amazon for books titled

"Boundary Layers"
and
"Progress in Aerospace Sciences, Part 1, 1985
by A.D. Young (Editor)" and others in this series.

PS. Previously I have had good experiences searching Amazon but with this search I realize that Amazon's search engine isn't all that great - searching using "books by the same author" will not produce all books by that author ! ! ? ?
