A fascinating pre-World War II Soviet appraisal of Nazi Germany's Luftwaffe airplane fleet, its organization, and geographical distribution. The main body of the image is given over to illustrations of aircraft in various profiles along with their technical specifications. At the center of the poster is a map of Germany showing the country divided by airforce precinct, with the national headquarters in Berlin, and regional headquarters in Konigsberg, Dresden, Munich, Munster, and Kiel. To the left of that is a diagram of the organizational structure of German aviation. Clockwise from upper-left, the following aircraft are illustrated: Dornier Do 10 (C-4); Arado 65; Heinkel HD-37 (as with the Dornier Do C-4, the transliteration throughout the poster is hit or miss; here the HD 37 is written as "НД" even though that would translate to "ND", not "HD"); Heinkel HD 41; Autogyro C.30 (Focke-Wulf); Junkers Ju 52; Dornier Do Y; Rohrbach Ro V "Rocco"; Rohrbach Ro VIII "Roland"; Dornier Do J "Wal"; Junkers Ju 160; Heinkel HD 55; Junkers K 37; Junkers W 34; Heinkel HE 12; Albatros L 78; Junkers G 38.

  • A History of the University of Washington Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics 1917-2003
    5/27/03 A History of the University of Washington Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics 1917-2003 * † ‡ § J. Lee, D.S. Eberhardt, R.E. Breidenthal, and A.P. Bruckner Department of Aeronautics & Astronautics University of Washington, Box 352400 Seattle, WA 98195-2400 The Department The University of Washington’s Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics was one of the first aeronautical engineering departments in the nation, and one of the seven originally established with the help of the Guggenheim Fund for the Advancement of Aeronautics. It offers the only aerospace degree program in the Pacific Northwest, a region whose aerospace industry has been a major contributor to the technological development, economic vitality and the security of the United States. Educators and researchers in the Department over the years have made numerous contributions in all major areas of aerospace engineering. Graduates at all degree levels, have been successful and valued in industry at the local, national, and international levels, as well as in government organizations and institutions of higher learning. Bill Boeing and the Early Years In 1903, the year of the Wright Brothers’ first powered flight, a man interested in establishing a timber business on the West Coast moved to Seattle after leaving Yale. Little did he know it at the time, but he was destined to change the face of aviation and the Pacific Northwest forever. His name was William E. Boeing. It is with this man that the story of aeronautics at the University of Washington begins. The first airplane flight in Seattle took place March 11, 1910, when Charles K.

  • Research Studies Series a History of the Civil Reserve
    RESEARCH STUDIES SERIES A HISTORY OF THE CIVIL RESERVE AIR FLEET By Theodore Joseph Crackel Air Force History & Museums Program Washington, D.C., 1998 ii PREFACE This is the second in a series of research studies—historical works that were not published for various reasons. Yet, the material contained therein was deemed to be of enduring value to Air Force members and scholars. These works were minimally edited and printed in a limited edition to reach a small audience that may find them useful. We invite readers to provide feedback to the Air Force History and Museums Program. Dr. Theodore Joseph Crackel, completed this history in 1993, under contract to the Military Airlift Command History Office. Contract management was under the purview of the Center for Air Force History (now the Air Force History Support Office). MAC historian Dr. John Leland researched and wrote Chapter IX, "CRAF in Operation Desert Shield." Rooted in the late 1930s, the CRAF story revolved about two points: the military requirements and the economics of civil air transportation. Subsequently, the CRAF concept crept along for more than fifty years with little to show for the effort, except for a series of agreements and planning documents. The tortured route of defining and redefining of the concept forms the nucleus of the this history. Unremarkable as it appears, the process of coordination with other governmental agencies, the Congress, aviation organizations, and individual airlines was both necessary and unavoidable; there are lessons to be learned from this experience. Although this story appears terribly short on action, it is worth studying to understand how, when, and why the concept failed and finally succeeded.

  • Heinkel He-219
    Luftwaffe-Experten 1939-1945 9/11/02 6:32 pm Heinkel He-219 Potentially one of the Luftwaffe's most effective night-fighters, the Heinkel He 219 Uhu (Owl) was another aircraft which suffered from misjudgments by senior members of the government and the Luftwaffe high command (principally, in this case, Generalfeldmarschall Erhard Milch, Inspector General of the Luftwaffe). Although the aircraft had proved itself a match for British bombers, including the de Havilland Mosquito, Milch succeeded in having the programme abandoned in favour of the Junkers Ju 388J and the Focke-Wulf Ta 154. Despite this, some aircraft were produced after the official cessation and production totaled 288 including prototypes. The Reichsluftfahrtministerium had been lukewarm about the project from the beginning, Heinkel's private venture P.1060 fighter-bomber proposal receiving little encouragement until 1941 when it was seen to have potential as a night-fighter. The all-metal shoulder- wing monoplane that finally emerged incorporated a number of noteworthy features. The pilot and navigator, seated back-to- back, enjoyed excellent visibility from the cockpit in the extreme nose, well forward of the guns so that the pilot's eyes were not affected by their flashes. The crew was also provided with ejector seats, the He 219 being the worlds first operational aircraft to be so equipped, and it was also the first aircraft with tricycle landing gear to achieve operational status with the Luftwaffe. The first prototype was flown on 15 November 1942, powered by two 1,750 hp (1305 kW) Daimler- Benz DB 603A engines, and in December armament trials were undertaken at Peenemunde.

  • The World's First True Rocket Aircraft
    VDI DGLR Verein Deutscher Ingenieure Deutsche Gesellschaft Hamburger Bezirksverein e.V. ROYAL AERONAUTICAL SOCIETY für Luft- und Raumfahrt Arbeitskreis Luft- und Raumfahrt Lilienthal-Oberth e.V. HAMBURG BRANCH E.V. Invitation to an RAeS lecture in cooperation with the DGLR and VDI The world’s first true rocket aircraft - the Heinkel He 176 Douglas Downer-Smith Lecture followed by discussion Date: Thursday, 1st October, 18:00 Location: HAW Hamburg Entry free ! Berliner Tor 5 No registration ! (Neubau), Hörsaal 01.12 Praxis Seminar Luftfahrt Germany 1939 - the Heinkel He 176 flew and was the first aircraft specifically designed for liquid fuel rocket propulsion. This was a true milestone of flight and just a few weeks before another milestone, the first flight of a turbojet aircraft – the Heinkel He 178. Both of these flights were made by the same pilot. Despite sparse archival evidence, how this aircraft came into existence against the backdrop of the rise of rocketry in pre-war Germany is covered, especially as regards relationships between those involved – Ernst Heinkel, the Luftwaffe and the pilot, Eric Warsitz. The probable performance of the aircraft is explored using animation and aircraft design software. Pre- war film of aircraft rocket propulsion experiments will be shown for comparison. Douglas Downer-Smith is an electronics engineer with a life-long interest in aviation. This has resulted in a special study of the jet and rocket aircraft of World War II. Researching some of the lesser known aircraft of this period is challenging yet rewarding and he is in contact with leading researchers in Germany and the USA.
