Many of us are often amazed with the technology of aeronautics. As of this time, the industry keeps on innovating and creating new ideas to better enhance the industry by the use of technology.
But what if I ask you about the history of aeronautics? Well, you would surely need the help of Google to do that. But what if a book already brings history together in one literary gem that will surely feed your interests?
This is what the book “Airplane Stories and Histories” brings its readers – the tales and history and life of the people who matter in the industry of aeronautics from Sir George Cayley, the Wright brothers, Charles Lindbergh, Wiley Post, Amelia Earheart, R. J. Mitchell, Sir Geoffrey de Havilland, Allan Loughead, Frank Whittle, and Kelly Johnson. The book features in detail their amazing lives and their contributions to the industry without sounding boring.
Written by Aeronautical Engineer and author Norman Currey, the book chronicles not only this century’s aeronautics stories but it also covers two hundred years of aviation.
The book also features the greatest stories of aeronautics from the first Atlantic flights, to World War airplanes, to the jet engine development, to post-war design – the book includes brief, concise, and understandable stories and discussions for the young and old. Discussion of new designs is also included that will surely spark the interest of everyone.
“I want to tell these stories so that more and more people will gain an appreciation of the aeronautics industry, and who knows – there will be more young people who will take the steps of our forefathers in the industry,” says Currey.
