First Flight: the Early Aviators - Disciples of Flight - 0 views

    • docderz
       
      Solid overview of the early history of aviation, leading up to the Wright Brothers.
  • The dream of flying is as old as humankind itself. Throughout our history, we have struggled to achieve flight. And it wasn’t until fairly recently in our history that we achieved the first flight. We started with balloons, followed with gliders, and eventually developed powered aircraft. The story of this achievement is a fascinating one, with many players such as the Wright Brothers being well established. However, their historic first flight at Kitty Hawk in 1903 may not have actually been the first powered flight. In this three part series, Disciples of Flight is going to look at the question of who achieved the first flight with a powered aircraft. In part one, First Flight: The Early Aviators, we will look at the development of flight leading up to the Wright Brothers. Part two, First Flight: the Wright Brothers, will give a brief history of the brothers, and cover their first flight. And part three, First Flight: Gustave Whitehead, will cover the bold claims of Gustave Whitehead, and others, to first flight.

Meet the pilot who kept Disney's film 'Planes' flying right - CNN.com - 0 views

  •  
    "Although aviation enthusiasts tend to appreciate authenticity, attention to detail and accuracy, let's remind ourselves that this is a fantasy movie about planes that talk. With that in mind, when it comes to the aircraft, does the movie bear any resemblance to reality? Well, yes, according to Sean Bautista, a veteran pilot who consulted on the film."

Engineering students devise low-cost wind tunnel - The Times of India - 0 views

  •  
    "A wind tunnel is used to study the influence of wind on moving bodies. The structure creates a near similar wind conditions as prevalent in nature when bodies move at high velocity. For this purpose, scaled down models of automobiles or aircrafts are kept inside the tunnel and high velocity airstreams are created and forces acting on the model are analyzed using suitable force measuring devices. Such measurements help in refining the body design"

What is Aviation Archaeology? - 0 views

  •  
    "Aviation archaeology is primarily the locating and documenting of old aircraft crash sites. It focuses on the preservation of these sites and of the history surrounding the activities that caused them. There are many ways to preserve crash sites and their history. However, a major barrier that stands in the way is a lack of knowledge on the part of the public and land managers."

Skylon Spaceplane | Interesting Engineering - 0 views

    "project to take the Skylon spaceplane into the orbit. During most of time it would be used as a normal airplane, like taking off and landing on conventional runways, but the main difference is in the power source of this aircraft. It will be powered by a Sabre engine, specially designed for its purpose. It will be working like a normal jet engine in the lower attitude, breathing in oxygen and when in higher altitude of outer space it will act as a rocket engine. So, we may call it some sort of a "hybrid engine"."

    "The solar cells that power solar aircraft are called photovoltaic (PV) cells. PV cells are made of materials that absorb light energy. The PV cells in most solar planes are made of silicon. Silicon is both lightweight and efficient, so it is the best choice for solar planes where the challenge is to create an aircraft light enough to fly but with enough power to get off the ground."
