Book Overview

Aeroplane Construction and Assembly is a comprehensive guidebook on the construction and assembly of airplanes, written by James Thomas King and first published in 1918. The book covers a wide range of topics related to airplane design and construction, including the principles of aerodynamics, the materials and tools needed for construction, and the assembly of various airplane components such as the wings, the fuselage, and the landing gear. The book also includes detailed instructions on how to build a biplane airplane from scratch, with step-by-step illustrations and diagrams to guide the reader through the process. Written during a time when aviation was still in its infancy, Aeroplane Construction and Assembly provides a fascinating glimpse into the early days of flight and the pioneering spirit of those who sought to conquer the skies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
