Description
Excerpt from Jet Propulsion Progress: The Development of Aircraft Gas Turbines
We have a true revolution in aeronautics caused by jet propulsion. We make a sharp break away fromthe Wright brothers'' concept Of an airplane when we replace the engine and propeller by the new jet-propulsion unit. This break with tradition forces the designer to seek new aerodynamic forms and new means Of control to cope with higher speeds. He is in the paradoxical position of having more power than he dare use.
