Excerpt from The A B C of Aviation As a result of considerable experience obtained last year in instructing prospective aviators and mechanics, and in response to an, insistent demand, the writer prepared a treatise on air plane power-plants called Aviation Engines, which has met with a very gratifying reception and which is used by many aviation schools as a text on this subject. Instructors who are using the engine book successfully and numerous students who have derived some benefit from its contents have asked for an exposition of the airplane in which its operation and te pair principles would be written in the same simple non-tech nical manner as the treatise referring to power-plants.

Aviation in Peace and War (Classic Reprint) available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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.

Download and read online ebook Aviation (Classic Reprint) write by Claude Grahame-White. This book was released on 2015-08-04. Aviation (Classic Reprint) available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Excerpt from Aviation Several courses are open to one who writes a book about flying. One can make it technical, for instance, and so appeal merely to the experts. In this way, one caters for a very limited audience. Or one can make it semi-technical, and endeavour to appeal to experts and to the ordinary individual as well. This I do not regard as a very happy compromise. Or the book may be made frankly non-technical, and so bid for the interest of all those readers who desire a knowledge of flying, but who do not wish any large amount of technical information. From this third point of view I have written my book; and I hope that just the ordinary individual, who does not want to be bothered by stacks of facts and rows of figures, will find something in its pages that will really interest him. If he does, I shall feel that my work has been amply repaid. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2015-08-04. Aviation available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Excerpt from Aviation: An Introduction to the Elements of Flight There is an ever-increasing number of people who desire to appreciate the main issues of technical subjects unconnected with their own professions: to such, primarily, I address this Introduction to the study of flight. There is no evading the fundamental technology of any real subject, whether commercial, scientific, or political by nature; the reader must ever provide the interest if he would receive any return whatsoever for his purchase of the author's capital. In this case, as the capital is so small, the initial interest on the reader's part must be all the greater. The scope of the book is indicated by the arrangement and character of the chapters. I have divided the treatment of the subject into four main parts. The first part relates to the fundamental principles of flight; the second part is concerned with practical accomplishment; it refers in detail to the work of certain notable pioneers like Lilienthal and the Wrights, and also has chapters on modem development, as demonstrated, for example, at the military aeroplane trials of 1912. The third part is mainly historical, and is placed in this order so that the significance of the "milestones" may more readily be appreciated. The fourth part is a collection of appendices that have no exact sequence or proper place in the body of the book. Among these I have included several simple numerical examples that may be of some assistance to the student. In any case, there is nothing like a few specific questions and answers as an assistance to fixing ideas on a strange subject.
