Popular Science Books for All

Wireless - by P.J. Risdon, 1923, Ward, Lock & Co Ltd, London

A phenomenal book describing wireless technology as it already existed in 1923 including clear descriptions of the ether theory and Einstein's theory of relativity, and explaining how Einstein's theory may have been erroneously or intentionally used to erase the ether theory. Both theories remain unconfirmed even 100 years later. But the entire wireless technology fundamentals, including remote control of ships and aircraft was already in existence at that time, and this technology was based entirely on the ether theory. Exceptionally user-friendly book. Download

Béchamp or Pasteur? A Lost Chapter in the History of Biology - by Ethel Douglas Hume,1923, The C.W. Daniel Company, London

This book is a compelling and thorough account of Pasteur's plagiarism and scientific fraud. It contains the evidence of the false grounds on which the germ theory of disease was elevated to its current status as a dogma, and beyond question. In this forgotten chapter of the history of biology and medicine, we are shown how powerful interests and agendas have prevailed over genuine science. Here are strong reminders of the powers which control the pharmaceutical and regulatory industries to this day. Download

For all: Aeronautical Science, Aircraft Gas Turbine Engines and Fuel Technology


This section has been especially created for those interested in obtaining source information concerning aircraft gas turbine engine technology and fuel consumption - a rather passionate and emotional topic on social media. It is recommended that one should read source documentation, carry out their own research and tests, and come to their own conclusions. The following downloads should help getting one started on that research.


The Jet Engine (5th edition) - by Rolls Royce, 1986, Derby England

The Jet Engine provides a complete, accessible description of the working and underlying principles of the gas turbine engine. Written by Rolls-Royce gas turbine engineers, it contains a wealth of detail and high-quality illustrations aimed at anyone interested in the detail of one of the most complex machines of our time; it covers everything from an introduction to the theory of jet propulsion to in-depth component definitions, from basic mechanics to maintenance and overhaul.

Pilot's Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge - US Federal Aviation Administration, 2003

The Pilot’s Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge provides basic knowledge that is essential for pilots including the fundamental physics underlying aircraft flight. This handbook introduces pilots to the broad spectrum of knowledge that will be needed as they progress in their pilot training. Download

Getting to Grips with Fuel Economy - Airbus Flight Operations Support & Line Assistance, 2004

Fuel consumption is a major cost to any airline, and airlines need to focus their attention on this in order to maintain their profitability. This brochure looks at all the significant operating variables that affect fuel economy for the current Airbus range of aircraft but the principles will apply across aviation.
This brochure shows that there are many factors that affect fuel consumption and that the potential gains and losses are huge. Most of these factors are directly controlled by the airlines own employees (flight crew, operations/dispatch, maintenance, etc.).
