Weltkriegs ausschließlich mit der Herstellung von Metallflugzeugen beschäftigt hat- ten. Zunächst wurden intensive Grundsatzforschungen zu allen Fragen der Verwendung von Metall im Flugzeugbau be- trieben und an der methodischen Entwicklung von Verfahren zur Herstellung von Ganzmetallflugzeugen gearbeitet. In die- ser Zeit gewann ZWL wertvolle Erfahrungen sowohl bei der Konstruktion als auch beim Bau, die sich in einer großen Zahl von Patenten im In- und Ausland niederschlugen. Als Baustoffe kamen nur Stahl und Duraluminium zur Verwendung. Während für hochbeanspruchte Teile wie Holme, Mo- torlagerungen, Stiele usw. grundsätzlich gehärteter Stahl benutzt wurde, verwendete man für Flügel, Rümpfe, Boote, Schwimmer, Spieren usw. hauptsächlich Duraluminium. Insbesondere dieses Leichtmetall bereitete bei seiner Verarbei- tung zunächst große Schwierigkeiten, vor allem mußte erst eine geeignete Warmbehandlung entwickelt werden. Hinzu kam, daß sich Duraluminium nur sehr schwer schweißen läßt, so daß auch die Verbindung der einzelnen Teile neue Ver- fahren erforderlich machte. Ebenso bedeutsam war die Entwicklung optimaler Querschnittsformen von Profilen aus Stahl und Leichtmetall. Umfang- reiche Belastungsversuche mit Holmen, Spieren, Stielen, Flächen und ganzen Flugzeugen lieferten die für die Berechnung der Flugzeuge auf statische Festigkeit notwendigen Daten.

    Dornier Do X Flugschiff (Flying Ship) As It Was Called, Was Conceived by Dr

    DDOORRNNIIEERR DDO XX ""FFLLYYIINNGG SSHHIIPP"" SPORT-SCALE ARF R/C MODEL AIRPLANE The Dornier Do X Flugschiff (flying ship) as it was called, was conceived by Dr. Claude Dornier in 1924, financed by the German Transport Ministry, and produced by the Dornier company of Germany in June of 1929. With its crew of 14, wingspan greater than 157 feet, 12 engines mounted above the wing on pylons in a push-pull configuration, and a maximum takeoff weight of 123,460 pounds, it was by far the largest heavier-than-air aircraft of its time. With a smoking room that had its own wet bar, a dining salon, and seating for 66 passengers – which could be converted to sleeping berths for night flights, its passenger accommodations approached the luxurious standards of transatlantic ocean liners. To introduce the Do X to the world, it took off on November 3, 1930 from Germany to visit the Netherlands, England, France, Spain and Portugal. It arrived at New York City on August 27, 1931, where thousands of sightseers visited the Glenn Curtiss Airport (now LaGuardia Airport) to tour this leviathan of the air. Although very popular with the public, numerous non-fatal accidents and other factors prevented more than three from ever being built. Two were broken up for scrap in 1937. The remaining Do X eventually became the centerpiece of Germany's aviation museum Deutsche Luftfahrt-Sammlung (German Aviation Collection) until it was destroyed during WWII by an RAF air raid the night of November 23, 1943. This RC Dornier is about 1/20 scale and took us almost 2 years to design.

    1910 - HENRI FABRE and the BIRTH of SEAPLANE Henri FABRE (1882-1984) Created the First Seaplane in the World from Zero

    Very early on, humans dreamed of flying like birds. Sitting at the controls of his airplane, the Eole, Frenchman Clément Ader was the first man to report having flown using an engine, back in 1890. He was followed by the first controlled flight in a motorized airplane, by the WRIGHT brothers (USA) in 1903. In 1670, many forerunners would take an interest in how to make something heavier than air take flight from the water, and thus launched into the adventure of the flying boat or, as it quickly became known, the seaplane. For example, the manufacturer and pilot Blériot attempted to equip landplanes (like the Blériot II) with floats, but unsuccessfully. 1910 - HENRI FABRE AND THE BIRTH OF SEAPLANE Henri FABRE (1882-1984) created the first seaplane in the world from zero. Unfortunately, his first craft, built in 1908, the Trimoteur (model in the middle of the room), was too heavy to lift out of the water, due to the weight of its three engines. Fabre did manage to get his Canard with floats out of the water and land it on the Etang de Berre on March 28, 1910. The flight was certified in a report produced by a bailiff (copy of the report). A float from the Fabre Canard is on display at the back of the workshop. Henri Fabre, the son of a family of sailors and shipwrights, received financial support for his projects from his family. Once it became too costly to manufacture planes, he devoted himself to the creation of floats for the airplanes of other pioneers and aviators.

I don't believe you, you're kidding me.“ Frühe Fluggeräte, ob schwerer oder leichter als Luft, bestanden aus Materialien, die uns heute im besten Fall als ungeeignet erscheinen. Bambus und Stoff weckten aber auch das Misstrauen der frühen Flugzeugbauer und -nutzer. Das revolutionäre Technologiesystem Flugzeug sollte von jeher aus den modernsten Materialien bestehen, ganz gleich ob sie immer wirklich die geeignetsten waren. Dieses Dogma hat bis heute nichts an Gültigkeit verloren. Und bis heute verursacht dieser Zwang zu den aktuellsten Materialien oft mehr Probleme als er löst. Das Beispiel Flugzeugbau bietet interessante Antworten auf die Frage, warum sich Technologien durchsetzen bzw. eben nicht durchsetzen. Es beweist, wie entscheidend und unterschätzt der Einfluss des Nutzers auf die Entwicklung einer Technologie ist. 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS Vorwort des Reihenherausgebers Rolf-Jürgen Gleitsmann 1.

    MooseAir #5: Dornier Do-J „Wal“ (Whale) 23. April 2008 MOOSEAIR #5 Version 1.0.0 DORNIER DO-J „WAL“ (WHALE) The „Whale“ was one of the most successful flying boats in German aircraft history. After its maiden flight on 6 November 1922 more than 250 Whales were produced and flown all around the world. Most famous was probably the „Amundsen-Whale“ used by the Norwegian explorer to fly to the North Pole, but also other re- cord flights were undertaken in the 20s and 30s of the last century. The Dornier „Wal“ (Whale) was one of the best-known and most successful flying boats ever developed. The aircraft was gigantic against other aircraft of its day. It completed its maiden flight on No- vember 6, 1922 and its total production ran to more than 200 exam- ples. To avoid violating the terms of the Treaty of Versailles, from July 1922 production of the flying boat was carried out at Pisa in Italy on the premises of Costruzioni Meccaniche Aeronautiche S.A.
