Gafford|James Hansen's book is written as an introduction to the role of aerodynamics in the development of American aviation and as such is a useful beginning point. The introduction makes the quite reasonable case that aerodynamics defines the usefullness and characteristics of the airplane. The first chapter takes us to the Wright brother| |
“. . . a splendid overview of the R&D processes that characterized the evolution of American aerodynamics and aviation. The brevity and high readability of this study will make it an especially welcome addition to the literature on the history of f

The airplane ranks as one of history’s most ingenious and phenomenal inventions—and surely one of the most world-shaking. How ideas about its aerodynamics first came together and how the science and technology evolved to forge the airplane into the revolutionary machine it became is the epic story James R. Hansen tells in The Bird Is on the Wing. Just as the airplane is a defining technology of the twentieth century, aerodynamics has been the defining...
