 ...his system is clearly an adapta-tion of the Baumann proposals for achieving boundary-layer
control by ejection, and there can be little doubt that the initialflow form is on the lines suggested by M. Henri Coanda for
augmenting fluid flow. The effect of the boundary-layer-controlaspect of the design was established by tunnel tests which
showed the wing to be capable of creating lift even at an ang...

 ...COME time ago. Fritz von Opel's 1929 flight in a solid-propellant^ rocket aircraft was quoted as the first jet-powered flight by
a man. It seems that the first jet flight could well be that claimedby Henri Coanda in December 1910. He built what might be
termed a "piston fan jet"-powered biplane, in which a pistonengine drove a ducted fan, the air impelled by which was mixed
with fuel and, with the...
