Hoerner's books are ONLY available from his widow.

She's a sweet lady and takes care of a very important legacy.

RE: Aircraft Design Text Books

DARcorporation does have an agreement with Mrs. Hoerner to resell the books.  They are priced the same as if you bought them directly from Mrs. Hoerner, so it really doesn't matter where you buy them from.

RE: Aircraft Design Text Books

Hiscocks did a lot of development for Murphy aircraft in BC (Canada).  The company has gone on to be very sucessful.  (Just in case somebody needed to know his credentials).
