For a low-math text on aeronautical engineering at its core, the FAA's Pilot's Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge [1][2] is hard to beat. It won't talk much about jet engines, though.
Real Engineering [3] and Mustard [4] tend to do a decent job surveying specific plane designs. And the Wikipedia pages are decently peppered with references.
Otherwise, getting into the weeds on engine design [5] and launch mechanics [6].
