“Fifty Years Fly Past”
Abstract
AIRCRAFT ENGINEERING'S first half‐century has spanned three‐quarters of the Aviation era since the Wright Brothers first flew on 17th December, 1903. Those 50 active years have seen a transformation of every aspect of the engineering scene — materials, structures, power‐plants, ancillaries and equipment. Yet still today, the art and the science of aeronautical engineering —and it is certainly both—are advancing as fast as any group in the past, while costs soar.
