The most comprehensive
book on kite drawings
Render immediately homage to Maxwell
EDEN for this excellent book, well-off, and for the
time spent to draw all details and kite plans.
The only annoyance for Europeans,
Asiatic people, and all other no Anglo-Saxons kiters is
the quotation in inches and feet. This measuring system
is an antiquity, is not the recognized international measuring
system, is not rational, neither scientific. It has been
reported that some NASA failure was due to conversion inaccuracy.
For not have this problem with our kites, Maxwell EDEN
have added a conversion table. But consider that the
David Pelham's book in the late 70's was already in centimeters!
More than 30 plans of kites, with
all details, clear description of assembly techniques have
made the name of this book, the better in the category "construction
of kites".
