Structural Problems of Advanced Aircraft

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  28 July 2016

Extract

In assessing the true extent of technical development of any kind the mind naturally seeks a standard for comparison. When considering structural development the standard chosen could well be that associated with the end of the Second World War. In preparing this paper, therefore, it appeared profitable, and certainly it has been extremely interesting for the author, to review the structure of some of the aircraft then in quantity production.
