The introduction of steam transport by land and sea three-quarters of a century ago must have aroused similar misgivings in conservative minds, which could not see how civilisa tion would be benefited by the discovery of the new means of travel.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Theory of Flight Although the book is meant as a text for students and engineers, it was not the author's purpose to supply the reader with ready-made formulas in which to substitute design data. Nor was it his intention to give a collection of results that the candidate for a degree should memorize. The book aims, as did the Fluglehre, to develop interest in and understanding of the fundamental ideas that underlie the design and the operation of modern aircraft. The problems inserted at the ends of the sections, particularly those marked by an asterisk, are intended to give some direction to the efforts of any reader who would apply himself toward a better comprehension of the diversified questions involved in the theory of airplane flight.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Aviation in Peace and War Our nation as a whole has been educated, owing to its geographical situation and by tra dition, to interest itself in the broader aspects of marine policy and development. It 'requires to take the same interest in aviation, a comparatively new subject, unhampered to a great extent by preconceived notions and therefore offering greater scope for individual thought. The following 1sketch 1 has been written in the hope that some of those who read it may be inspired to study aviation in one or other of its branches, whether from the historical, technical, strategical, or commercial point of view. Any opinions e pressed are, of course, my own-and not official. I propose first briefly to trace the history of aviation from its beginnings to the outbreak of war; next to describe the evolution of aircraft and of air strategy during the war; and last to estimate the present position and to look into the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Aircraft in the Great War: A Record and Study But in this war, owing to lack of numbers and of means for striking a decisive blow, both the Germans and the Allies have been able to make constant use, for reconnoitring, of their flying craft. And this may be written without depre ciating in any way the gallant efforts made both by British and French pilots, and frequently with success, to shoot their opponents in the air with rifles and revolvers, and make up by their deter mination what they lacked in armament. But though these tactics, in certain areas, produced for a time definite results, there was no question of so crippling the enemy that he was robbed of the aid of his flying scouts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Aircraft in War and Commerce The present drawback of the expensiveness of airship accommodation will, I believe, be got over by movable shields and the anchoring of airships behind them, so that whichever way the wind blows the breakwater, so to speak, will al ways cover the nose of the airship and prevent any great pressure of wind upon it. This will help very much, for it is the airship shed rather than the airship which costs money and is ditfi cult to build and expensive to maintain.
