HOT AIR BALLOONS Theballoon was inflated and hot air from an open fire burning in an ‘large wicker basket ‘ for lifting purpose MONTGOLFIER BROTHERS, JOSEPH & ETIENNE designed the first hot air balloon It was the first to lift the human beings from ground level Based on this concept J.A.C.CHARLES built and fly an hydrogen filled an air balloon
- 6. AIRSHIPS: Airships were originally called"dirigible balloons” . Another advance was made in 1884, when the first fully controllable free- flight was made in a French Army electric- powered airship, La France, by Charles Renard and Arthur Krebs.

- 9. JOHN STRING FELLOW’S TRIPLANEIn1848 String fellow achieved the first powered flight using an unmanned 10ft wingspan steam-powered monoplane built in a disused lace factory in Chard, Somerset. After that the machine leaving a guide wire to fly freely, achieving some thirty yards of straight and level powered flight

- 16. FLAGG BIPLANE The yearsbetween World War I and World War II saw great advancements in aircraft technology. Airplanes evolved from low-powered biplanes made from wood and fabric to sleek high-powered monoplanes made of aluminum, based primarily on the founding work of Hugo Junkers during the World War I period. In Qantas De Havilland biplane, c. 1930

JET FIGHTER World WarII saw a great increase in the pace of development and production, not only of aircraft but also the associated flight-b The first jet aircraft to fly was the Heinkel He 178 (Germany), flown by Erich Warsitz in 1939,ased weapon delivery systems.followed by the world's first operational jet aircraft, the Me 262, in July 1942.

- 21. MODERN MILITARY PLANES Nowmilitaries use primarily jet planes and are made to be faster, stronger, and advanced with more electronic autopilots and navigation. Today militaries have jets that can go at supersonic speeds. Some can even evade radar and carry smaller planes
- 22. THE DIGITAL AGE(1980–PRESENT) The last quarter of the 20th century saw a change of emphasis. No longer was revolutionary progress made in flight speeds, distances and materials technology. This part of the century instead saw the spreading of the digital revolution both in flight avionics and in aircraft design and manufacturing techniques.
