Appendix E. References to individuals in Chanute’s 1894 Progress in Flying Machines
This comes from going over Chanute’s text to complete and update the index. These are counts of pages which refer to these individuals, or in a few cases when no individual is identified, to experiments or experimental craft. It excludes individuals referred to on only one page.
Notes:
-
On Lilienthal: This book includes a 15-page article by Lilienthal, which I counted as 15 page-citations. Most of Lilienthal's famous flights on hang gliders were yet to come.
-
On Harvgrave: his most famous experiment (went airborne, hanging from a string of box kites) was yet to come
-
On Moy: the count includes 5 pages of own article which was included in this book
-
Langley had not yet built model aircraft at this time.
-
I could not think of a way to count references to the author effectively, so his own work and contribution are in essence undercounted.
