This volume chronicles the making of the Harrier Jump Jet—the innovative Cold War fighter aircraft designed to operate from virtually anywhere.In 1957, the British engine manufacturer Bristol Siddeley turned aircraft design on its head with the creation of the Pegasus engine. Until then, aircraft designs would seek out suitable engines. Now the Pegasus was an engine in search of a suitable aircraft. The result was the famous Hawker Siddeley Harrier, the first milita...

The transition from piston engines to jet engines is often a significant milestone in every pilot's career.Turbines or jet engines offer different performance characteristics compared to piston engines. Not only do turbines deliver superior power, but they also enable flight at much higher altitudes than piston engines.In this work, you will learn all the basic operating principles of a turbine, along with the main components that make up these types of engines, and a step-...
