Default The Physics of Flying

Can someone point me in the right direction?While building and learning to fly, I'd really like to read up on the mathematics / physics of flying. I'd like to know how to calculate whether or not a particular design should fly or if a plane will fly based on the design (wingspan, cg,etc.. ) and the weight of the model etc.. Any good resources on the calculations involved in flight / aerodynamics?

Thanks!
