…dismissively. "Just step on the ball" she recited, referring to the turn-and-bank indicator. No thank you, I'd rather know what's keeping my plane stable, so I found the answer elsewhere: Langewiesche's awesome Stick and Rudder, still relevant 70 years after publication.
……大西洋的海面。但事情就是这样发生了。当时我就觉得这个名字听起来很耳熟。William 是沃尔夫冈·兰格维施（Wolfgang Langewiesche）的儿子，而老兰格维施正是我学飞行的启蒙书《Stick and Rudder》（操纵杆与方向舵）的作者。https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stick_and_Rudder
…surface of the Atlantic Ocean. But that is what happened. And I thought that name sounded familiar. William is the son of Wolfgang Langewiesche, author of one of the books that taught me how to fly: Stick and Rudder. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stick_and_Rudder
确实就是这样。兰格维施家族的传承可以追溯到他的父亲沃尔夫冈·兰格维施，他也是一位极出色的作家，顺便提一句，他写了大概至今仍是关于固定翼飞行最好的书——《Stick and Rudder》（1936年）。但从那以后飞行技术已经演进了许多。虽然我也很欣赏《梅尔的故事》（The Story of Mel），但计算机技术早就远离了在磁鼓存储器上倒腾几个比特和字节的时代，所以我绝对更倾向于…
Exactly this. The Langewiesche legacy goes back to his father Wolfgang Langewiesche, who is also a terrific writer, incidentally about probably still the best book about flying fixed wings, Stick and Rudder (1936). But flying has moved on a lot since then. Although I also appreciate "The story of Mel", computing has moved on so far from moving some bits and bytes on a drum memory, that I absolutely prefer…
我的书架上就放着一本沃尔夫冈·兰格维施写的飞行员经典教程《Stick and Rudder》（操纵杆与方向舵）。据维基百科说，这篇文章的作者正是他的儿子。
I have Wolfgang Langewiesche's _Stick and Rudder_, a classic book for pilots on how to fly airplanes, sitting on a shelf near me. According to Wikipedia, the author of this article is his son.
……在大型飞机上被淘汰，部分原因是地面上倾斜的客舱很不方便。DC-3 是最后一款成功的后三点式（tail-dragger）客机。沃尔夫冈·兰格维施在他 1944 年的经典著作《Stick and Rudder》中写道，后三点式布局作为起落架着陆表现糟糕，但对于动力不足的飞机来说却是很好的起飞装置。它能为没有襟翼的飞机在起飞时提供类似襟翼的效果。后三点式飞机…
…died out for larger aircraft partly because the slanted cabin when on the ground was inconvenient. The DC-3 was the last successful tail-dragger airliner. Wolfgang Langewiesche, in his 1944 classic, "Stick and Rudder", writes that the tail-dragger arrangement is a poor landing gear, but a good takeoff gear for underpowered aircraft. It gives the effect of flaps on takeoff for planes that don't have flaps. Tail-draggers…
这本书还可以和罗伯特·巴克（Robert Buck）的《Weather Flying》以及泰勒（Taylor）的《Instrument Flying》一起买盒装套装。其中第一本几乎和《Stick and Rudder》一样优秀。
This book is also available as a boxer set with Weather Flying Robert Buck and Instrument Flying by Taylor. The first of those is almost as good as Stick and Rudder.
