Summary:

The application of classical hydrodynamics to the solution of aeronautical problems is based on simplifying assumptions of a fundamental nature, as the process involves setting aside the viscosity and compressibility of the air in the first place. These two properties greatly complicate any analytic treatment of aerodynamical questions, and by neglecting them it becomes possible to obtain valuable, though approximate results, which are of great practical use.
