This presents nine papers selected because… of their diversity and because they illustrate clearly several key themes. First, it takes a long time from the onset of a new idea to the production of a useful product that enhances operations; research results rarely lead to what was envisioned in the beginning; and it usually takes a confluence of several disparate developments to produce a new capability. These were initially presented at a one day symposium to celebrate the centennial of flight.
