Excerpt from Aeroplane Design, and a Simple Explanation of Inherent Stability
The disquisition on the subject, which follows this preface, was originally written by Mr. F. S. Barnwell to be read as a paper before the Engineer ing) Society of Glasgow University. It was an sequently published in serial form in the aeroplane early in 1915, and so great and so constant was the demand for the numbers con taining the treatise that it has seemed worth while to republish the whole in the form of a small book, and to append to it a short article by Mr. W. H. Sayers on the subject of The Stability of Aero planes, which also appeared in the aeroplane.

Excerpt from Aeroplane Design, and a Simple Explanation of Inherent Stability
It seems well to make clear why these two? writers should be taken seriously by trained and experienced engineers, especially in these days when aeronautical science is in its infancy, and when much harm has been done both to the development of aeroplanes and to the good repute of genuine aeroplane designers by people who pose as "aeronautical experts on the strength of being able to turn out strings of incomprehensible calculations resulting from empirical formulae based on debatable figures acquired from inconclusive experiments carried out by persons of doubtful reliability on instruments of problematic accuracy.
Certain British manufacturers of sufficient independence of character have proceeded along their own lines and have produced aeroplanes which remain unbeaten, power for power, by any in the world on the score of sheer efficiency. These machines - notably Avro two-seater tractor biplanes, Bristol single seater biplane Scouts, Martinsyde Scouts, and Vicker's "pusher" gun-carrier biplanes - have done more than anything else to assure to the Royal Flying Corps during 1915 that ascendancy in the air over German aircraft which has been such a notable feature of the war.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a clear and practical introduction to the fundamental principles of aeroplane design. Written in 1915 by a renowned aeronautical engineer, the book delves into various aspects that were cutting-edge at the time. The author breaks down the task of designing an aircraft into smaller, manageable components. Beginning with a discussion of the forces acting on an aircraft in flight, the book covers the individual components of an aeroplane, including the body, wings, landing gear, and tail. The author provides detailed explorations of each component's design, construction, and function. Calculations are included to provide readers with an understanding of how to determine the appropriate size and configuration of each component for a given aircraft design. The book's straightforward approach and inclusion of period-specific examples make it an accessible guide for anyone interested in the history of aeronautical engineering and the evolution of aircraft design principles. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
