"Model Flying Machines" by Alfred Powell Morgan is a practical guide on the construction and operation of model aeroplanes, written in the early 20th century. This instructional book provides detailed plans and insights, aimed at both novices and enthusiasts interested in aeronautics and the art of model building. The author's expertise illuminates the various techniques and principles involved in creating functional flying models, emphasizing experimentation and learning through hands-on experience. At the start of the book, the introduction outlines the fascination and joy of building and flying model aircraft, asserting that even simple designs can achieve remarkable flight performances. It discusses the importance of understanding aerodynamics by comparing a model aeroplane to a kite and explains how basic principles of flight can be applied to achieve successful flights. The structure is laid out with a clear plan to teach readers about aeroplane components, construction methods, and the physics of flight, setting the stage for an informative and engaging journey into the world of model aeroplanes.
