  • UN VIEIL OISEAU RARE Ou ENQUETE a PROPOS D’UNE PHOTO TOMBEE D’UN ALBUM DE FAMILLE
    SEQUENCE HISTOIRE UN VIEIL OISEAU RARE ou ENQUETE A PROPOS D’UNE PHOTO TOMBEE D’UN ALBUM DE FAMILLE Monsieur Wallet, un vieux passionné de tout ce qui touche à l’aéronautique, m’a confié cette belle image un peu abîmée par les ans. « Ce cliché a été pris après la guerre, mon père est au premier plan, je ne connais pas le nom de cet avion mais il me semble qu’il s’agit d’un Potez ! » Ma curiosité a tout de suite été émoustillée car je n’avais jamais vu ce type de capot moteur à section carrée sur un avion de la première guerre mondiale (en dehors du Breguet XIV mais avec l’échappement au dessus du moteur) et le haubanage me paraissait encore très primitif. Alors, j’ai cherché dans mes documents et sur Internet, cette merveilleuse bible où l’on trouve tout, à condition de bien chercher. Henry Potez et Marcel Bloch (Marcel Dassault) nés au début des années 1890 suivent un cursus aéronautique similaire puisqu’ils sortent tous deux de l’Ecole Supérieure d’Aéronautique (future Sup’Aéro) au début des années 1910. C’est alors l’époque bénie des Farman, Voisin, Blériot et la France est au premier rang mondial. A l’entrée en guerre, ils sont incorporés dans un régiment d’aviation du génie avant d’être détachés au laboratoire de recherche aéronautique de Meudon Chalais. Avant 1914, personne n’a pris conscience de l’importance inexorable de l’arme aérienne dans le conflit à venir. C’est lors de la bataille de la Marne que l’aviation rend ses réels premiers services en décelant les manœuvres des troupes allemandes entraînant la réaction française.

  • Short History of Brazilian Aeronautics
    Proceedings of the 11th Brazilian Congress of Thermal Sciences and Engineering -- ENCIT 2006 Braz. Soc. of Mechanical Sciences and Engineering -- ABCM, Curitiba, Brazil,- Dec. 5-8, 2006 Paper CIT06-0458 A Brief History of Brazilian Aeronautics Bento Silva de Mattos Technological Institute of Aeronautics – São José dos Campos – São Paulo - Brazil [email protected] Abstract. The history of aeronautics is the history of the technological development spiced by the enterprising spirit of aviation pioneers. The flight revolution was largely a product of technology and not so much of science. Its practitioners followed the tradition of the craftsmen and technicians who, awakened by the experimental method of Sir Francis Bacon and others, were the proto-engineers of the great expansion of technology and engineering that happened from the time of the Industrial Revolution onwards. Its first great accomplishment was the re-invention of lighter-than-air flight in 1783. Some time before the Brazilian Jesuit Bartolomeu de Gusmão make flew an unmanned small balloon in Portugal. By the mid-1790’s, the balloon had already been turned to practical benefit, as an observation system; it appeared as a scientific lifting platform shortly afterwards. The quest for steerable flight led to the creation of practical, small airships by the end of the 19th century, and the larger rigid airship appeared at the beginning of the 20th century, almost simultaneously with the appearance of the airplane. An overview of milestone events that marked the history of aeronautics worldwide is presented in its early days. The major achievements by the Brazilian Santos-Dumont are also described and analyzed as well as the major events in the Brazilian Aeronautics history.

    1920-1936 Henry Potez, pionnier de l’aéronautique française Henry Potez (1891-1981) est l’un de ces pionniers de l’industrie aéronautique qui allie des qualités de technicien hors normes avec celles d’administrateur averti. Après avoir créé « l’Hélice-Éclair », dont les modèles équipèrent tous les avions de la guerre 1914-1918, Henry Potez fonde avec son père, en 1919, la société des avions Henry-Potez. D’abord installée à Suresnes (Hauts-de-Seine), puis à Levallois- Perret (Hauts-de-Seine), l’entreprise s’établit à Méaulte (Somme) près d’Albert grâce aux fonds des dommages de guerre. Durant l’entre-deux-guerres, dans cette usine qui occupe plusieurs milliers d’ouvriers, Henry Potez conçoit quarante- huit types d’avions nouveaux, dont la moitié fut construite en série. L’usine étant nationalisée en 1937, Henry Potez est mis à la tête de la SNCAN (Société nationale de construction aéronautique du Nord) et, au moment de la déclaration de guerre, l’usine de Méaulte fournit un millier de Potez 63 à l’armée française.
