Abstract

This volume of the book series “German Aeronautics” is dedicated to German aeronautical research, whose beginnings are here set to coincide with the work and flights of Otto Lilienthal. The deliberations are predominantly related to the airplane. The airship as well as astronautics are only treated marginally, in case of the latter considering aspects of the so called space planes which today, like the American “Space Shuttle”, ascend to earth orbit by rocket propulsion and return gliderlike. They will, in some decades, most likely employ airbreathing engines so that by then today’s sharp differentiation will have been lifted.
