25 Chapter 2 The Adolescence of Air Power 1904-1919

26  Mission:  Identify U.S. sentiment towards aviation 1904-1919  Identify the Wright Brothers accomplishment Oct 1905  Describe the U.S. Government response to the Wright Brothers request to build an aircraft.  Describe President Roosevelt’s aircraft requirements to the Wright Brothers.  Describe the events on Sept 17, 1908 regarding Lt Selfridge.  EQ: Describe significant aviation events occurring between 1904-1919.

27  Aviation came from balloons, dirigibles, gliders and the first heavier the air controlled, sustained flight by the Wright brothers

28  1904-1919 people were getting interested in flying but didn’t realize the uses of airplanes.  Some thought of them as just toys or novelties.

30 In one of the most famous images in aviation history, the Wright brothers -- Orville piloting, Wilbur running alongside -- make the first-ever powered, sustained, controlled flight, December 17, 1903, in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina.

31 French aviation pioneer Hubert Latham attempts to cross the English Channel in his Antoinette IV monoplane in 1909. He didn't make it -- but he did become the first person to successfully ditch a powered aircraft in the water.

32 In perhaps the second greatest aviation advance after the Wrights' first flight, Henri Farman (1874 - 1958) pilots his Voisin-Farman biplane on a circular flight of nearly one mile on January 13, 1908, in France.

40 An experimental bi-plane, designed by Louis Paulhan.

41 Horatio Phillips' "Venetian Blind" multiplane, possibly the first aircraft ever to fly in Britain.

42 Early prototype of the "Flying Doughnut."

43 A monoplane, "Papillon," with curved wings in Amiens, France.

44  Compare the development of the airplane in the US and Europe

45  1904-1905 ◦ Wright brothers continued experiments and perfected their aircraft.

46 ◦ Oct 1905 – flew 38 minutes over 24 miles – flt ended because they ran out of fuel.

47 ◦ Offered the US government to build an aircraft  But government rejected (x3) due to Langley Failures

48 ◦ President Theodore Roosevelt directed Secretary of War to ask Wright brothers to develop a plane

49 ◦ Seven requirements:  Carry a pilot  Carry a passenger  125 mile range  Fly at least 36 mph under perfect control  Take off and land in a war zone  Disassembled for transport by wagon  Reassembled in 1 hour ◦ Contract called for Wrights to train 2 pilots for Army

50 ◦ Orville began building the plane and Wilbur signed $100,000 to form a French aircraft building company

51 ◦ 1908 – Orville completed 12 successful flights but on 13 th flight…

52 ◦ 1908 – Sept 17 (Fort Myers, VA) - Passenger Army Lt Thomas Selfridge died when the propeller broke while 75 ft in air and the plane crashed - Orville had serious injuries

53 ◦ 1909 - Army bought first plane for $25,000 plus a $5,000 bonus because the aircraft exceeded speed requirements

54 Who was Lt Thomas Selfridge? Role with AEA – what did he contribute? - was government representative to the AEA and served as its secretary Selfridge became the first US military officer to pilot a modern aircraft when he took to the air alone in AEA's newest craft, White Wing, traveling 100 feet on his first attempt and 200 feet on his secondWhite Wing

55 Lt Thomas Selfridge and Orville Wright – just prior to take off

56 On September 17, 1908, the Wright Flyer circled Fort Myer 4½ times at 150 feet. Halfway through the fifth circuit, the right propeller broke, losing thrust. This set up a vibration, causing the split propeller to hit a guy wire bracing the rear vertical rudder. The wire tore out of its fastening and shattered the propeller; the rudder swiveled to the horizontal and sent the Flyer into a nose-dive. Orville shut off the engine and managed to glide to about 75 feet, but the Flyer hit the ground nose first. [ [

60 When the craft hit the ground, both Selfridge and Wright were thrown against the remaining wires. Selfridge was thrown against one of the wooden uprights of the framework, and his skull was fractured. He underwent neurosurgery but died that evening without regaining consciousness. [1] He was 26. [1] Orville suffered severe injuries, including a broken left thigh, several broken ribs and a damaged hip, and was hospitalized for seven weeks. Selfridge was not wearing any headgear, while Wright was only wearing a cap, as two existing photographs taken before the flight prove. If Selfridge had been wearing a helmet of some sort, he most likely would have survived the crash. As a result of Selfridge's death, the US Army's first pilots wore large heavy headgear reminiscent of early football helmets. Selfridge Air National Base near Detroit, Michigan Lt Thomas Selfridge
