Paperback. Condition: New. 2022 ed. "Of all the men who attacked the flying problem in the 19th century, Otto Lilienthal was easily the most important. His greatness appeared in every phase of the problem. No one equaled him in power to draw new recruits to the cause; no one equaled him in fullness and dearness of understanding of the principles of flight; no one did so much to convince the world of the advantages of curved wing surfaces; and no one did so much to transfer the problem of human flight to the open air where it belonged."These words were spoken by Wilbur Wright, who successfully accomplished the first powered flight together with his brother Orville in 1903 on the sand dunes of the Outer Banks off the coast of North Carolina. Wilbur was talking about the most important of their predecessors, Otto Lilienthal.Lilienthal attracted worldwide attention due to the spectacular photographs showing him in flight, made possible by technology that had only just been developed by him. This fortuitousunion between a pioneer of aviation and the pioneers of so-called "instantaneous photography" is responsible for the immense contemporary popularity of Lilienthal's flights around the globe, the first ever free flights performed by man. This book traces the life of the German aviation pioneer, focusing on the designs of his many aircraft and the photographic documentation that has survived. The presentation ends with a remarkable research project conducted by one of the authors, right up to and including his own training exercises with Lilienthal's "normal soaring apparatus" and "large biplane". This project offered new insight into Lilienthal's work, and also led to a spectacular aerial meeting of Lilienthal's 1895 biplane and the Wright brothers' 1902 biplane at a historic location on the Outer Banks. The book provides access to video material, largely stemming from this project.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - The inspiring story of two brothers and inventors who turned their revolutionary visions into reality. When Otto Lilienthal made his first successful landings in 1891 at Derwitzer Mühlenberg near Potsdam with a glider he had built himself, a new era began: the dawn of human flight. Two years earlier, he had published his findings in a book on the fundamentals of aviation, based on numerous experiments he had conducted with his brother Gustav. The history of flight is also the story of two very different brothers. Otto and Gustav Lilienthal grew up in Anklam, Pomerania, in northern Germany. Fatherless from an early age, they were a creative team from childhood: eager to experiment, willing to take risks, both artists and engineers. Rising from poverty, they became successful Berlin entrepreneurs and pioneers of technical progress. Their path reflects Germany's emergence into modernity and its belief in the wonders of technology. But their influence extends far beyond aviation. From gliders to employee profit-sharing and the 'Freie Scholle' housing cooperative, the Lilienthal brothers made history with their ingenious ideas and visionary designs. In this biography, Manuela Runge and Bernd Lukasch tell a story of courage, inventiveness, and a new beginning that changed the world.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Die spannende Geschichte zweier Brüder und Erfinder, die ihre revolutionären Visionen in die Tat umsetzten. Als Otto Lilienthal 1891 am Derwitzer Mühlenberg bei Potsdam mit einem selbstgebauten Gleitflugzeug die ersten sicheren Landungen gelingen, beginnt ein neues Zeitalter - die Geburtsstunde des Menschenflugs. Kurz zuvor hatte er seine Erkenntnisse in einem Buch über die Grundlagen der Fliegekunst veröffentlicht, gestützt auf zahlreiche Versuche, die er gemeinsam mit seinem Bruder Gustav unternommen hatte. Denn die Geschichte des Fliegens ist auch die Geschichte zweier ungleicher Brüder. Otto und Gustav Lilienthal wachsen im pommerschen Anklam auf, früh ohne Vater, und sind von Kindheit an ein kreatives Team: experimentierfreudig, risikobereit, Künstler und Techniker gleichermaßen. Trotz der Armut des Elternhauses werden sie zu erfolgreichen Berliner Unternehmern und Pionieren des technischen Fortschritts. Ihr Weg spiegelt den Aufbruch Deutschlands in die Moderne und den Glauben an das Wunder der Technik. Doch ihr Wirken reicht weit über die Luftfahrt hinaus. Ob Flugzeug, Arbeiter-Gewinnbeteiligung oder die Wohngenossenschaft 'Freie Scholle' - mit ihren genialen Ideen und visionären Entwürfen schreiben die Brüder Lilienthal Geschichte. Manuela Runge und Bernd Lukasch erzählen in dieser Biografie von Mut, Erfindungsreichtum und brüderlichem Teamgeist, die die Welt veränderten. 228 pp. Deutsch.…
