Description

Diana Good Cornelisse. This photographic documentary traces the evolution of aviation technology at Wright Field from its earliest inception -- literally the days of the Wright brothers themselves -- to the beginning of the supersonic era. This time period is known in military aerospace history as the “golden age” of Wright Field, though, the post-supersonic era work of Wright-Patterson has been every bit as influential upon contemporary aeronautics & astronautics. Chapters: the Wright Brothers, 1899-1916; McCook Field, 1917-1927; Wright Field & the Great Depression; Wright Field through WW II. Extensive bibliography. Over 100 photos.
