Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Nevertheless this country could ill have dispensed with the experiments of that small and courageous band of aviators, among whom Dickson and Cody were prominent. By 1908 Cody had built an aeroplane and was making experimental flights at Aldershot. In 1907, A. V. Roe, working under great difficulties, constructed and flew his first machine, a triplane fitted with an 8-10 horse-power twin cylinder Jap bicycle engine, the first tractor type machine produced by any country, and a very important contribution to the science of flight.

Book excerpt: In 1903, two events occurred that shaped the course of aviation history. The Wright Brothers flew at Kitty Hawk & Bill Boeing came to Seattle, Washington. Forged in the crucible of World War I, heavier-than-air flying machines quickly established themselves as a major force, & in World War II, after the foot soldier himself, became the primary instrument of attack & victory. On the commercial side, airplanes began to bring people together--from all nations & all walks of life. For the first time in history, the world was beginning to be linked & bonded as had been visualized by Wendell Willkie in his ONE WORLD in 1943. At last the focus was on a common thread--the reality that the fragile earth is surrounded by a hostile universe. Much more than a history commemorating the 75th anniversary of the company in 1991, BOEING IN PEACE & WAR highlights the major product decisions made by Boeing--& those of its principal competitors over nearly eight decades--in leading to domination in commercial airplane production.
