1.0. Introduction
Aviation is defined as the design, manufacture, use or operation of aircraft
in which the term aircraft refers to any vehicle capable of flying. Aircraft
can either be heavier-than-air or lighter-than-air. Lighter-than-air aircrafts
include balloons and airships, and heavier-than-air aircrafts include
airplanes, autogiros, gliders, helicopters, and ornithopters.
For centuries in the history man has dreamed to soar with the birds.
Famous inventors such as Leonardo da Vinci, John String fellow, and
Lawrence Hargrave have conjured up ideas of how to get some of the
strangest machines to fly long before the Wright brothers’ famous first
flight at Kitty Hawk.
1.1. HISTORY OF AVIATION
1. First Flights
On December 17, 1903, Orville and Wilbur Wright capped four years of
research and design efforts with a 120-foot, 12-second flight at Kitty Hawk,
North Carolina - the first powered flight in a heavier-than-air machine.
Prior to that, people had flown only in balloons and gliders.
The first person to fly as a passenger was Leon De Lagrange, who rode
with French pilot Henri Farman from a meadow outside of Paris in 1908.
Charles Furnas became the first American airplane passenger when he
flew with Orville Wright at Kitty Hawk later that year.
The first scheduled air service began in Florida on January 1, 1914.
Glenn Curtiss had designed a plane that could take off and land on water
and thus could be built larger than any plane to date, because it did not
need the heavy undercarriage required for landing on hard ground.
