Abstract

IF the history of air transport is traced back we find that superimposed on a steady rate of development, there have been several important milestones standing out as major jumps in technological progress. The first cabin airliner‐the first monoplane‐the first pressure cabin‐the first turbine‐the first jet and now the first supersonic transport.
