Project Gutenberg 2020-07-22 Public domain in the USA. 222 Rathbun, John B. Aeroplane Construction and Operation Produced by James Simmons "Aeroplane Construction and Operation" by John B. Rathbun is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This comprehensive manual is designed for individuals interested in aeronautics, including builders, flyers, and students, and addresses various aspects of aeroplane design and operation. The book serves as an instructional guide, balancing technical details with practical applications for both amateur enthusiasts and more experienced aviation professionals. At the start of the manual, Rathbun introduces the field of aeronautics, noting the evolution from theoretical concepts of flight to the practical achievements of early aviators such as the Wright Brothers. He emphasizes the need for accessible information that bridges the gap between complex mathematical theories and basic aeronautical principles. By focusing on essential calculations, practical problems, and control techniques for pilots, the opening portion outlines the foundational knowledge required for both constructing and operating aeroplanes effectively, setting the stage for deeper exploration of aerodynamics and flight mechanics throughout the manual.
