  • 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.

  • Grandpa Munster BB Scout
    March 18, 1991---- NEW YORK--- Now this is March madness. It's a creepy trenchcoat afternoon, and you're devouring Shrimp a la Gram-pa and talking basketball at Grampa's Bella Gente restaurant in Greenwich Village. You could be doing 1,000 other things. But no. You have to hear what Al Lewis has to say about Basketball Hall of Famer John "Honey" Russell and failed playground legends. Lewis is best known for his role as Grandpa Munster on "The Munsters" television series. He was also Officer Leo Schnauser on "Car 54, Where Are You?" Before that, he worked burlesque houses, vaudeville and traveling medicine shows. Lewis is less known as a comedy-club owner, restaurateur and a lecturer about black history in America. He's also one of the nation's premier high school basketball scouts. Hmm. "I'm the most knowledgeable man of roundball that ever lived," he says. "If you put together the top 20 college coaches - Dean Smith, Don Haskins, John Wooden - they have not seen as many high school games as I have. "Name somebody I haven't seen. The Big O. Connie Hawkins at Boys' High (in New York City). Bill Walton (Helix High School, San Diego). ." Lewis is 81. His voice sounds like a long whistle in a wooden gym. His creased face appears to have met a few Bill Cartwright elbows. He wears a big, hand-carved bolo tie holder made of shed antler.
