Empires of the Sky Zeppelins, Airplanes, and Two Men's Epic Duel to Rule the World【電子書籍】[ Alexander Rose ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞＜strong＞The Golden Age of Aviation is brought to life in this story of the giant Zeppelin airships that once roamed the skyーa story that ended with the fiery destruction of the ＜em＞Hindenburg＜/em＞＜/strong＞.＜/p＞＜p＞＜strong＞“Genius . . . a definitive tale of an incredible time when mere mortals learned to fly.”ーKeith O’Brien, ＜em＞The New York Times＜/em＞＜/strong＞＜/p＞＜p＞At the dawn of the twentieth century, when human flight was still considered an impossibility, Germany’s Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin vied with the Wright Brothers to build the world’s first successful flying machine. As the Wrights labored to invent the airplane, Zeppelin fathered the remarkable airship, sparking a bitter rivalry between the two types of aircraft and their innovators that would last for decades, in the quest to control one of humanity’s most inspiring achievements.＜/p＞＜p＞And it was the airshipーnot the airplaneーthat led the way. In the glittery 1920s, the count’s brilliant prot?g?, Hugo Eckener, achieved undreamed-of feats of daring and skill, including the extraordinary Round-the-World voyage of the ＜em＞Graf Zeppelin＜/em＞. At a time when America’s airplanesーrickety deathtraps held together by glue, screws, and luckーcould barely make it from New York to Washington, D.C., Eckener’s airships serenely traversed oceans without a single crash, fatality, or injury. What Charles Lindbergh almost died doingーcrossing the Atlantic in 1927ーEckener had effortlessly accomplished three years before the ＜em＞Spirit of St. Louis＜/em＞ even took off.＜/p＞＜p＞Even as the Nazis sought to exploit Zeppelins for their own nefarious purposes, Eckener built his masterwork, the behemoth ＜em＞Hindenburg＜/em＞ーa marvel of design and engineering. Determined to forge an airline empire under the new flagship, Eckener met his match in Juan Trippe, the ruthlessly ambitious king of Pan American Airways, who believed his fleet of next-generation planes would vanquish Eckener’s coming airship armada.＜/p＞＜p＞It was a fight only one manーand one technologyーcould win. Countering each other’s moves on the global chessboard, each seeking to wrest the advantage from his rival, the struggle for mastery of the air was a clash not only of technologies but of business, diplomacy, politics, personalities, and the two men’s vastly different dreams of the future.＜/p＞＜p＞＜em＞Empires of the Sky＜/em＞ is the sweeping, untold tale of the duel that transfixed the world and helped create our modern age.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	1,409円

Advanced Aircraft Design Conceptual Design, Analysis and Optimization of Subsonic Civil Airplanes【電子書籍】[ Egbert Torenbeek ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Although the overall appearance of modern airliners has not changed a lot since the introduction of jetliners in the 1950s, their safety, efficiency and environmental friendliness have improved considerably. Main contributors to this have been gas turbine engine technology, advanced materials, computational aerodynamics, advanced structural analysis and on-board systems. Since aircraft design became a highly multidisciplinary activity, the development of multidisciplinary optimization (MDO) has become a popular new discipline. Despite this, the application of MDO during the conceptual design phase is not yet widespread.＜/p＞＜p＞＜em＞Advanced Aircraft Design: Conceptual Design, Analysis and Optimization of Subsonic Civil Airplanes＜/em＞ presents a quasi-analytical optimization approach based on a concise set of sizing equations. Objectives are aerodynamic efficiency, mission fuel, empty weight and maximum takeoff weight. Independent design variables studied include design cruise altitude, wing area and span and thrust or power loading. Principal features of integrated concepts such as the blended wing and body and highly non-planar wings are also covered.＜/p＞＜p＞The quasi-analytical approach enables designers to compare the results of high-fidelity MDO optimization with lower-fidelity methods which need far less computational effort. Another advantage to this approach is that it can provide answers to “what if” questions rapidly and with little computational cost.＜/p＞＜p＞Key features:＜/p＞＜ul＞＜li＞Presents a new fundamental vision on conceptual airplane design optimization＜/li＞＜li＞Provides an overview of advanced technologies for propulsion and reducing aerodynamic drag＜/li＞＜li＞Offers insight into the derivation of design sensitivity information＜/li＞＜li＞Emphasizes design based on first principles＜/li＞＜li＞Considers pros and cons of innovative configurations＜/li＞＜li＞Reconsiders optimum cruise performance at transonic Mach numbers＜/li＞＜/ul＞＜p＞＜em＞Advanced Aircraft Design: Conceptual Design, Analysis and Optimization of Subsonic Civil Airplanes＜/em＞ advances understanding of the initial optimization of civil airplanes and is a must-have reference for aerospace engineering students, applied researchers, aircraft design engineers and analysts.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	15,903円

This massive 500-page compilation also includes the latest Navy Program Guide document, providing an overview of key systems, programs, and initiatives of the Navy.＜/p＞＜p＞Contents include: Carrier battle group information, the carrier air wing (FA-18 squadrons, S-3 squadron, EA-6B squadron, E-2C squadron, helicopter squadron), flight operations, complete list of all aircraft carriers from the USS Langley to the newly named USS John F. Kennedy, news about the Electromagnetic Launch and Recovery Equipment (EMALS), the rich history of carriers - escort carriers, World War II years, post-War 1945-49, Korea in the 1950s, space support and the Vietnam war, and more.＜/p＞＜p＞Included in this reproduction is the complete text of the Naval Historical Center document, Evolution of Aircraft Carriers. Contents of this impressive history report: The Aeroplane Goes To Sea, Decisions Out Of Jutland, Langley, Lex And Sara, Carriers From The Keel, Flattops In The War Games, Last Of The Fleet Problems, The Japanese Developments, The Early Attack Carriers, Emergence Of The Escort Carriers, CVB's: The Battle Carriers, The End Of The 'Bokubokan' In WW II, The Wartime European Carriers, The Turbulent Post-War Years, CVA's Built To Meet Modern Needs. This collection, based on information gathered from many official sources, provides an interesting account of how and why the carrier developed as it did. It is the story behind the perhaps better known tale of carrier operations. It is the story of change--change dictated by operational necessity and by technological progress. It is also the story of how naval constructors took full advantage of technological progress, and the lessons learned of operational experience to solve the Navy's unique problem of taking aviation to sea. As a result of their efforts and the constant improvement of tactics necessary to weld sea and air power together, the air craft carrier stands today at the forefront of Naval power, ready and able to defend the nation and to project national interests to all parts of the world.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	1,148円

The Rarified Air of the Modern Airplanes and Technological Modernity in the Andes【電子書籍】[ Willie Hiatt ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞From the moment news reached Peru in 1910 that Jorge Ch?vez Dartnell, a pilot of Peruvian parentage, had become the first man to fly across the Alps, aviation fired the imagination of the masses in his home country. His and other Peruvian pilots' achievements generated great optimism that this technology could lift Peru out of its self-perceived backwardness and transform it into a modern nation. Though poor infrastructure, economic woes, a dearth of technical expertise, and frequent pilot deaths slowed Peru's domestic aviation project, diverse groups saw in airplanes their own visions for Peruvian renewal. In this book, Willie Hiatt shows how politicians, businessmen, and military officials promoted the project as critical to the nation. At the same time, indigenous communities and provincial residents willingly gave up land for airfields, raised money to purchase aircraft for the military, named airplanes after sponsoring civic groups, towns, and regions, and breached police cordons at flying exhibitions to get close-up looks at planes and pilots. By 1928, three commercial lines were transporting passengers and goods from far-flung regions of the Amazon, highlands, and coast to Lima and beyond. Tracing the development of Peruvian aviation from heroic individual feats to essential infrastructure, ＜em＞The Rarified Air of the Modern＜/em＞ shows how Peruvians mobilized airplanes to reflect their technological progress, their modern identity, and their nation's intertwining with the history of the West.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	13,840円

Science in Flux: NASA's Nuclear Program at Plum Brook Station, 1955 - 2005 (NASA SP-2006-4317) - Nuclear Rockets, NERVA, Atomic Airplanes, Aircraft Nuclear Propulsion【電子書籍】[ Progressive Management ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞This official NASA history document - converted for accurate flowing-text e-book format reproduction - is a dramatic account of the history of NASA's nuclear reactors at the Plum Brook Station in Sandusky, Ohio. The book details the origin of the facility and its work supporting efforts to build a nuclear-powered aircraft and nuclear rockets. The author describes the station as a "nuclear relic from NASA's golden age of space exploration."＜/p＞＜p＞Testing and research reactors as scientific tools are more common than most people realize, and their history remains largely untold. There is an important distinction between these two types of reactors. A test reactor is one that operates above the 10-megawatt thermal power range, whereas a research reactor operates between 10 kilowatts and 10 megawatts. Power reactors that generate electricity (and operate at much higher power levels) frequently appear in newspaper headlines and are conspicuous because of their size and potential for disaster, whereas research reactors can be quietly tucked away, even located in the midst of a college campus. Since the completion of the first nuclear research reactor in 1942 at the University of Chicago, 672 facilities have been built throughout the world. The United States was the most prolific research reactor-building nation, with 227 sites, followed by the former Soviet Union with 97. These American reactors were constructed by national laboratories (Argonne, Oak Ridge, Brookhaven, and Los Alamos), universities (North Carolina State, Penn State, MIT, etc.), private industry (Westinghouse, General Electric, etc.), and the military. In 1961, the year that the Plum Brook reactor went "critical" (meaning that it was ready to conduct research with a sustained nuclear reaction), there were 120 nuclear research and test reactors in operation in the United States. At 60 megawatts of power, the Plum Brook facility (along with its 100-kilowatt mock-up research reactor) was the second most powerful test reactor in the country, at the time second only to the Engineering Test Reactor at the National Reactor Testing Station near Idaho Falls, Idaho. Worldwide, only the Soviet Union, Britain, and Canada possessed more powerful test reactors than Plum Brook before it went critical.＜/p＞＜p＞In 1955 the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) began designing Plum Brook to help support the goal of a nuclear airplane with a nuclear test reactor to enable engineers to conduct materials testing. The advantages of having nuclear propulsion for an airplane were numerous. Most importantly, in an era before ICBMs and conventionally fueled planes that could circumnavigate the globe, a nuclear airplane promised the first chance for the American military to fly from the United States, drop bombs over the Soviet Union, and then return home. But technical and environmental problems overwhelmed the political and military potential of this program. Although John F. Kennedy helped to inspire the dream of nuclear rockets, ironically he also terminated the research program Plum Brook was originally intended to carry out. Kennedy suspended the nuclear airplane program in March 1961, after over $1 billion and 15 years of work. Less than 3 months before the reactor was to start operation, Plum Brook's main research program lost its political support. The public perceived nuclear airplanes as too costly and dangerous, and chemical fuels began providing many of the advantages once thought possible only with nuclear propulsion. This would be the first time that politics dramatically shaped the future of Plum Brook's scientific work. It would not be the last.＜/p＞＜p＞Although the government had terminated the nuclear airplane program, Plum Brook and the research potential of its neutron flux still represented a valuable capability.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	1,135円

The United States Army Air Arm: April 1861 to April 1917, Wright Brothers, Curtiss and Burgess Airplanes, Air Fatalities, Balloons, Airships, Early Planes, Signal Corps, Aviation School【電子書籍】[ Progressive Management ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞This important official monograph recounts the development of aviation in the United States Army from April 1861, when the Army first became interested in balloons as a means of observation, to April 1917, when America entered World War I. The origins and organizations of the Army's air arm are told in detail, with particular emphasis on early air force personnel, planes, and experiments. In the process the monograph traces the early development of what today is The United States Air Force. Of necessity, the monograph tends strongly toward the chronological variety. This is owing to several factors, the thinness of aviation activities for most of the long period covered and an equal thinness in records being the principal factors. Only a few books which deal with this early period of Army aviation have been written, and all of them together do not cover the period. This, then, is the first attempt to put the story into a single volume. Because the story of the air arm from April 1917 to the beginning of World War II also has not been fully covered it is expected that the present monograph will be the first of three, which, when completed, will become the basis for a published history of the Army Air Arm, 1861-1939.＜/p＞＜p＞Chapter I - Balloons and Airships in the United States Army, 1861-1913 * Chapter II - Early American Planes and Their Inventors * Chapter III - The Signal Corps' First Air Installations and First Military Aviator Rating * Chapter IV - College Park and Other Air Schools, 1912-1913 * Chapter V - Signal Corps Aviation School at San Diego, 1913 to July 1914 * Chapter VI - Aviation Legislation, and the Aviation Section Through 1914 * Chapter VII - Aviation in 1915 and 1916 * Chapter VIII - The Aviation Section in 1916 * Chapter IX - The 1st Squadron with Pershing's Punitive Expedition, 1916 * Chapter X - Army Flying Training Schools, The National Guard, and The Air Reserve * Chapter XI - The Aviation Section to 6 April 1917＜/p＞＜p＞Chapter I * Balloons and Airships in the United States Army, 1861-1913 * Balloons in the Civil War The Spanish-American War Balloon * Ballooning in the United States Army, 1902-1914 * Chapter II * Early American Planes and Their Inventors * The Langley Plane * The Wright Brothers' Plane * Other Early Airplanes and Inventors * Chapter III * The Signal Corps' First Air Installations and First Military Aviator Rating * Fort Sam Houston, 1910-1911 * College Park, 1911 * Winter School at Augusta, Georgia, 1911-1912 * "Military Aviator" Rating * Chapter IV * College Park and Other Air Schools, 1912-1913 * College Park * The Augusta Air School, 1912-1913 * The Texas City Air School, 1913 * Overseas Air Schools: Philippines and Hawaii * Chapter V * Signal Corps Aviation School at San Diego, 1913 to July 1914 * Chapter VI * Aviation Legislation, and the Aviation Section Through 1914 * Legislative Action * The Aviation Section * Airplanes Purchased by the Signal Corps in 1914 * The San Diego School * Chapter VII * Aviation in 1915 and 1916 * The Aviation Section in 1915 * The National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics * The Aero Club of America and the National Guard in 1915-1916 * The First Aero Company of the National Guard in 1915-1916 * The Status of the American Aviation Industry in 1915 * Pyrotechnics Tested * Airplanes Accepted and Tested in 1915 * The San Diego School * The 1st Aero Squadron * San Antonio Air Center * The Philippine Squadron and Others ー 1915 and 1916 * Chapter VIII * The Aviation Section in 1916 * Air Legislation * The Aviation Section * San Diego Developments * The Aviation Center at Fort Sam Houston * Reserve Corps Expansion * Balloons and Zeppelins * Division of Authority * Summary * Chapter IX * The 1st Squadron with Pershing's Punitive Expedition, 1916 * Chapter X * Army Flying Training Schools, The National Guard, and The Air Reserve * Army Flying Training Schools * The Flying School Program, April 1917＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	1,060円

Postcard Tales Short Stories from Truth to Spoof About Airplanes, Animals, And Kids【電子書籍】[ Rory A. Hansen ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞The initial inspiration for this book of short stories started from stories I would write on the back of postcards. The postcard pictures would provide a launching point for an imaginative tale. A story seemed like a more fun way to send a greeting than just saying, "Having a good time, wish you were here!" There's not much room on the back of a postcard, so I would write as small as possible and use every square millimeter of space. On later travels, I would bring along a little notebook and use writer's license to create a little color to my adventures. However, sometimes my adventures were enough of an adventure to just tell the story as it happened. This book is a compilation of entertaining stories from real life to animal life to a "bit" of imagination. I hope you enjoy reading them as much as I enjoyed writing them.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	1,288円

Crafting Flight: Aircraft Pioneers and the Contributions of the Men and Women of NASA Langley Research Center - NACA Aviation History, Apollo Moon Landing, Viking Mars, Jet Airplanes, Wind Tunnels【電子書籍】[ Progressive Management ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Professionally converted for accurate flowing-text e-book format reproduction, this exceptional book provides a great history of NASA Langley Research Center's contributions to aviation and spaceflight. You will read about one of the Nation's oldest research and development facilities, a place of imagination and ingenuity. If this is your first "visit," you will surely find many surprises. If you are a veteran, the pictures and text will evoke many memories.＜/p＞＜p＞Chapter 1 - Craving Flight * Chapter 2 - A Laboratory for Flight * Chapter 3 - Refining the Airplane * Chapter 4 - Swords and Plowshares * Chapter 5 - Beyond the Home Planet * Chapter 6 - Expertise Applied * Chapter 7 - Redefining Roles * Chapter 8 - Beyond the First One Hundred Years＜/p＞＜p＞One hundred years of flight is quite a historical achievement. We have progressed from a 57-second flight over the dunes of Kitty Hawk to the over 25-year journeys of Voyager 1 and 2 beyond Pluto's orbit. During that time span, in perhaps the most awe-inspiring aerospace accomplishment after Wilbur and Orville Wright's historic flight, the first humans, Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins, flew to the Moon. Sixty-six years after the flight at Kitty Hawk, people all across our home planet Earth paused to watch on television as American astronaut Neil Armstrong stepped out of the Lunar Lander onto the surface of the Moon.＜/p＞＜p＞As we pause to celebrate the centennial of flight from our perspective in the early part of the twenty-first century, we can look back over the countless contributions of many individuals to flight. The first person who looked to the sky, observed birds in flight, and dreamed of humans soaring through the air is lost in history. Recounted in these pages are the stories of a few aviation pioneers and the contributions of the men and women of Langley Research Center. We celebrate not only their accomplishments, but also their perseverance and dedication.＜/p＞＜p＞A Congressional mandate issued in 1915 formed the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA). In 1958, Congress mandated the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) from the NACA. Both the NACA and NASA were created in response to the need for the united States to catch up to existing technological advances. Although the United States was the birthplace of controlled, powered flight, by World War I, we were technologically far behind Germany, France, and Great Britain. The NACA was created to study the problems of flight "with a view to their practical solution." In 1958 when the former Soviet Union launched the first artificial satellite to orbit the Earth, the United States again found itself behind technologically, Congress passed the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Act of 1958 "to provide for research into problems of flight within and outside the Earth's atmosphere."＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	1,060円

Deep Stall The Turbulent Story of Boeing Commercial Airplanes【電子書籍】[ Philip K. Lawrence ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Deep Stall applies a framework of strategic analysis to the Boeing Company. Boeing is the world's largest aerospace / defence company, with turnover in the region of US $60bn. The book examines the relative decline of Boeing in the civil aircraft market in relation to European manufacturer, Airbus. The aim of the book is to utilize the concept of strategic value to explain Boeing's decline. The authors define this concept as investment in people and technology to leverage future market success by developing innovative new products, arguing that Boeing has neglected strategic value in favour of shareholder value, defined in terms of short-term cash benefits. The rationale for the book exists both in the fact that the story in itself is interesting and also in the wider framework of analysis concerning the correct strategic approach for running a high technology business. The argument illustrates what can happen when quarterly returns become the predominant strategic rationale for a company. In the U.S. the business media (Economist, Forbes, Fortune, and Business Week etc) are now focusing on the question of Boeing's decline and the major implications for the U.S. national interest. Boeing is one of the jewels in the US technology crown, but today U.S. jobs and capability are being exported abroad, with most of its aircraft program work based in Asia. This is a hot topic in the US which explains why the business media are now so interested in this question. The book sits squarely in the centre of this debate. Deep Stall concludes with a brief analysis of the recent fight-back that has been evident in Boeing's fortunes and the successful campaign to sell the new 787. The authors probe the question of whether Airbus or Boeing is likely to dominate in the next ten or fifteen years.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちらをクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。	11,123円
