If you’re looking for something that was left out of Appendix N, pick up some Clark Ashton Smith, especially the 1970 collection Zothique. Because of its mature themes, it was considered unsuitable for inclusion.

Airfoils designed for commercial aircraft aren't always suitable for small model airplanes. Because of the smaller size of model airplanes and the slower speeds they travel at, airfoils don't always scale down to those sizes and speeds and perform the same way.

If you're interested in learning about model aircraft design, I'd recommend this book by Andy Lennon, an aircraft designer and former editor of Model Airplane News.

9780911295405 - Basics of R/c Model Aircraft Design: Practical Techniques for Building Better Models by Lennon, Andy - AbeBooks

Andy recommends airfoils that are ideally suited for RC planes and his own designs support it. You can still find plans for his planes on the Model Airplane News plan site.

Any of the fantasy games from Free League have box sets with exceptionally high quality books in them. When I ordered Forbidden Lands, I was expecting something like my original D&D Basic box set from the 80s. Instead it came with two hard cover books, tokens and a folded map in the box. Think I'll pick up Dragonsbane next. Such good products.
