Produktinformationen zu „Jet - The story of jet propulsion (ePub)“

Flying is today part of our life. We can sit in comfortable seats and reach nearly every destination around the world. Few passengers know that the engines one can see through the cabin window have been invented and built and tested just 85 years ago. At the beginning there were inventors, small engines and small aircraft, which have grown in the course of decades into big aircraft, powerful engines and mighty companies.The story of this development is highly fascinating and entertaining. Who wants to know more finds in this book a lot of informations and technical details. Never before a book with this range of inventors, jet engines, jet aircraft and jet companies has been published.

Autoren-Porträt von Wolfgang Brix

The author Wolfgang Brix has worked for 36 years as engine expert in the company Airbus on all projects and programs and has evaluated and recalculated numerous engines. The contact to the engine companies has resulted in a huge archive of informations, photos and figures as basis of this book. His interest in the history of jet engines has led to contacts to the family of the German inventor Hans von Ohain and to the son of the English inventor Frank Whittle, producing new insights into the history of jet engines. The author has tried to explain the technology simple but precise and has used plenty of photos and figures.The author wishes the inclined reader an entertaining reading pleasure. His goal would be achieved if the reader occasionally thinks: where did he get that from, or: I didn't know that before, or: he has explained that well.
