Download or read book During the Flight written by Emma Alcott and published by . This book was released on 2020-07-30 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: They say joining the Army changes a man... too bad Chris never got the memo. Sure, his battle-sculpted body and brooding blue eyes are hotter than asphalt in summer, but he's still every bit the jerk he was before leaving their small town for the military years ago. Pompous. Arrogant. Cocky as hell... and constantly on Warren's mind. It should be easy to ignore him. Straight single dads aren't worth pining over, and straight a*holes even less. If only Warren could stop dreaming about the way it would feel if Chris were to grab him by the hair, rake his teeth down his neck, and-well, you get the point. The problem is, Warren's fantasies aren't likely to dry up, because something about Chris did change while he was away... and the glint of desire in his eyes when he argues with Warren now? There's nothing straight about that. During the Flight is the hot and hilarious third book in the Small Town Hearts series, but no knowledge of previous books is needed to fall in love with this one.

Download or read book Free Flight written by James Fallows and published by PublicAffairs. This book was released on 2008-11-05 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The troubles of the airline system have become acute in the post-terrorist era. As the average cost of a flight has come down in the last twenty years, the airlines have survived by keeping planes full and funneling traffic through a centralized hub-and-spoke routing system. Virtually all of the technological innovation in airplanes in the last thirty years has been devoted to moving passengers more efficiently between major hubs. But what was left out of this equation was the convenience and flexibility of the average traveler. Now, because of heightened security, hours of waiting are tacked onto each trip. As James Fallows vividly explains, a technological revolution is under way that will relieve this problem. Free Flight features the stories of three groups who are inventing and building the future of all air travel: NASA, Cirrus Design in Duluth, Minnesota, and Eclipse Aviation in Albuquerque, New Mexico. These ventures should make it possible for more people to travel the way corporate executives have for years: in small jet planes, from the airport that's closest to their home or office directly to the airport closest to where they really want to go. This will be possible because of a product now missing from the vast array of flying devices: small, radically inexpensive jet planes, as different from airliners as personal computers are from mainframes. And, as Fallows explains in a new preface, a system that avoids the congestion of the overloaded hub system will offer advantages in speed, convenience, and especially security in the new environment of air travel.
Download or read book Inflight Science written by Brian Clegg and published by Icon Books Ltd. This book was released on 2011-04-07 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The perfect companion to any flight - a guide to the science on view from your window seat. There are few times when science is so immediate as when you're in a plane. Your life is in the hands of the scientists and engineers who enable tons of metal and plastic to hurtle through the sky at hundreds of miles an hour. Inflight Science shows how you stay alive up there - but that's only the beginning. Brian Clegg explains the ever changing view, whether it's crop circles or clouds, mountains or river deltas, and describes simple experiments to show how a wing provides lift, or what happens if you try to open a door in midair (don't!). On a plane you'll experience the impact of relativity, the power of natural radiation and the effect of altitude on the boiling point of tea. Among the many things you'll learn is why the sky is blue, the cause of thunderstorms and the impact of volcanic ash in an enjoyable tour of mid-air science. Every moment of your journey is an opportunity to experience science in action: Inflight Science will be your guide.
Download or read book Leonardo written by Domenico Laurenza and published by Giunti Editore. This book was released on 2004 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gli studi di Leonardo sul volo attraverso una trattazione sistematica e una descrizione del loro progredire nel corso del tempo. Il volume ricostruisce l'origine dell'idea leonardesca di realizzare il sogno del volo umano a partire dagli anni trascorsi a Firenze nella seconda metà del Quattrocento: un sogno che ha dovuto aspettare più di quattro secoli per essere realizzato. Descrive quindi gli sviluppi successivi della ricerca: dagli spettacolari progetti di macchine volanti elaborati nel periodo in cui Leonardo si trova a Milano, ospite di Ludovico il Moro, all'attento studio del volo degli uccelli portato avanti specialmente dopo il 1500. Un'indagine durata una vita intera, nell'utopia di una macchina in grado di imitare la natura.

Book Synopsis Flight to Arras by : Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
Download or read book Flight to Arras written by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry and published by HMH. This book was released on 1969-10-22 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The World War II aviator and author of The Little Prince tells his true story of flying a reconnaissance plane during the Battle of France in 1940. When the Germans first invaded France in May of 1940, the French Air Force had a mere fifty reconnaissance crews, twenty-three of which served in Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s Group II/33. After only a few days, seventeen of the crews in Saint-Exupéry’s unit had already perished. Flight to Arras is the harrowing story of a single mission over the French town of Arras, an endeavor Saint-Exupéry realized the futility of even as he witnessed it unfolding. Filled with tension, emotion, philosophy, and historical detail, and penned by a master storyteller, this extraordinary memoir serves as a record of a little-known chapter of the Second World War, and an unforgettable portrait of the brave souls who fought despite desperate odds.
