The world of manned flight--from its primitive beginnings through the sophisticated present to the science-fiction future--makes up the scope of this book. It covers the history of flight, thee theory of aerodynamics, propulsion, navigation and air-traffic control, testing, design and other aspects of this world. This volume consists of alternating text chapters and picture essays. The Appendix comprises a glossary of airmen's slang and a chronological list of the highlights of manned flight.
