  • 90 Years of Flight Test in the Miami Valley
    in the MiamiValley History Offke Aeronautical Systems Center Air Force Materiel Command ii FOREWORD Less than one hundred years ago, Lord Kelvin, the most prominent scientist of his generation, remarked that he had not “the smallest molecule of faith’ in any form of flight other than ballooning. Within a decade of his damningly pessimistic statement, the Wright brothers were routinely puttering through the skies above Huffman Prairie, pirouetting about in their frail pusher biplanes. They were there because, unlike Kelvin, they saw opportunity, not difficulty, challenge, not impossibility. And they had met that challenge, seized that opportunity, by taking the work of their minds, transforming it by their hands, making a series of gliders and, then, finally, an actual airplane that they flew. Flight testing was the key to their success. The history of flight testing encompassesthe essential history of aviation itself. For as long as humanity has aspired to fly, men and women of courage have moved resolutely from intriguing concept to practical reality by testing the result of their work in actual flight. In the eighteenth and nineteenth century, notable pioneers such asthe French Montgolfier brothers, the German Otto Lilienthal, and the American Octave Chanute blended careful study and theoretical speculation with the actual design, construction, and testing of flying vehicles. Flight testing reallycame ofage with the Wright bro!hers whocarefullycombined a thorough understanding of the problem and potentiality of flight with-for their time-sophisticated ground and flight-test methodolo- gies and equipment. After their success above the dunes at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina on December 17,1903, the brothers determined to refine their work and generate practical aircraft capable of routine operation.

COVERT 1926–2015 Elected in 1980 “Contributions to aerodynamics, aeronautics, education of engineers, and the national security.” BY EDWARD M. GREITZER, WILLIAM T.G. LITANT, AND SHEILA E. WIDNALL EUGENE EDZARDS COVERT, a renowned aerodynamicist, aerospace engineer, and engineering educator, passed away January 15, 2015, at age 88. His career spanned research, teach- ing, and public service. He is credited with developing the world’s first practical wind tunnel magnetic suspension system, he served on the commission that investigated the destruction of the Space Shuttle Challenger, and he received the Daniel Gug- genheim Medal, one of the most prestigious awards in aviation. Gene was born February 6, 1926, in Rapid City, South Dakota, to Perry and Eda (née Edzards) Covert. He received his bachelor of aeronautical engineering at age 20 from the University of Minnesota and immediately went to work for the Naval Air Development Center, Pilotless Aircraft Division, on projects that resulted in the Sparrow, the West’s primary air-to-air missile from the 1950s to the 1990s. In 1948 he com- pleted his master’s degree, also in aeronautical engineering at the University of Minnesota. In 1952 he joined the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AeroAstro) at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology as a research engineer in MIT’s Naval Supersonic Laboratory.

  • Katharine Wright Haskell (1874 – 1929) Papers, 1922-1928 (55 Folders)
    Western Historical Manuscript Collection Kansas City KC263 – Katharine Wright Haskell (1874 – 1929) Papers, 1922-1928 (55 folders) Provenance: These letters were received as accession number 610kc from Mrs. Henry C. Haskell, the widow of Henry C. Haskell, stepson of Katharine Wright Haskell. Mrs. Henry C. Haskell loaned this material to Western Historical Manuscript Collection for microfilming on 20 October 1990. Biography: Katharine Wright was born in Dayton, Ohio on August 19, 1874, the last child and only daughter of Bishop and Mrs. Milton Wright of the United Brethren Church. Her four older brothers included Wilbur and Orville Wright, the first men to accomplish powered flight at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina on December 17, 1903. Katharine graduated from Oberlin College of Ohio in 1898 and after, taught Latin at Steele high school in Dayton and helped her brothers raise money for their famous project. Giving speeches and writing letters on behalf of the airplane experiment, Katharine was known to have been as necessary to the success of the flight at Kitty Hawk as were her brothers. Always maintaining close ties with her alma mater, she was elected to the Board of Trustees of Oberlin College. Katharine had met and become friends with Henry Haskell and with Isabel Cummings while the three were students at Oberlin College. Henry and Isabel were married in 1901. The couple were frequent guests at the Wright home in Dayton over the years, and when Isabel died in 1923, Henry resumed a correspondence with Katharine. In time, a romance developed. Wilbur, Orville and Katharine, each unmarried, lived together in Dayton.

  • MS-1 PART III Photographs
    MS-1: Wright Brothers Collection PART III WRIGHT FAMILY PHOTOGRAPH COLLECTION This series includes many original photographic prints made by the Wrights from their own negatives shortly after the images were taken. The Wrights exposed at least 303 gelatin dry plate negatives in the course of documenting their process of invention. All of their glass plate negatives were given to the Library of Congress in 1949, but many of their original prints remained with the Estate of Orville Wright. Many of the Wright Brothers’ original negatives were damaged in Dayton’s great flood of 1913, when they were submerged for up to four days. The Wright State University collection includes some images for which no negatives exist at the Library of Congress and so many of these prints are unique. In addition, this collection includes hundreds of prints collected by the Wrights through their association with other aviation pioneers such as Octave Chanute, and a great variety of aeronautical prints either collected by them, or sent to them by well-wishers through the years. While the major prints exist in both collections, both the Wright State University collection and the Wright collection in the Prints and Photographs Division of the Library of Congress contain many images that are unique to each collection. Wilbur and Orville Wright began photographing their experiences on the Outer Banks using a 4 x 5 inch dry plate camera. In 1902 they purchased a Korona view camera which used 5 x 7 inch dry plates. They developed their negatives and made prints in the darkroom they set up at their home in Dayton.

There can be no fundamental democracy where half the population, being of sound mind, are compelled to obey laws in the making of which they have had no voice . But if I must say more, then I would say that women today need, and are asking for the ballot not because they wish to forsake their homes, but because they wish to make their homes better places to live in. Woman needs the ballot to protect her home and her children, now as always her first care . .” - Grace Isabel Colbron, “Why I Believe in Woman Suffrage,” n.d.
