]]> Going Electric: What are the Potential Benefits of Electric Aircraft? https://hartzellprop.com/going-electric-the-benefits-of-electric-aircraft/ Wed, 03 Jun 2020 17:15:16 +0000 https://hartzellprop.com/?p=20414 Aviation pioneers have dreamed about the possibility of electric flight for decades. Long before the Wright Brothers, innovators were experimenting with batteries and electric motors to power airships and balloons. In 1883, French military engineers Charles Renard and Arthur Constantin Krebs used batteries and an electric motor to power La France, a steerable, hydrogen-filled dirigible. […]

Aerodynamics, which means “air in motion,” was studied by Aristotle and Archimedes as early as the 2nd century. By the 1700s, aerodynamicists like Isaac Newton and Daniel Bernoulli developed theories that would lay the foundation for heavier-than-air flight. But […]

]]> Hartzell History: The Fascinating History of Barnstorming https://hartzellprop.com/hartzell-history-history-barnstorming/ Tue, 04 Jul 2017 12:44:00 +0000 http://hartzellprop.com/?p=15712 One of the most fascinating periods of aviation history is the age of barnstorming in the 1920s. The end of World War I left many trained pilots out of work and itching to fly again. The military also had a surplus of aircraft, mostly the Curtiss JN-4 Biplane “Jenny,” biplanes, which they sold to former […]

Yet pilots have unique vision requirements: We rely on near-field vision to read delicate cockpit instruments as well as excellent distance vision to accurately gauge takeoff, landing, and navigation. So, what are some of the threats to pilot’s eyes, […]
