Extract

Airscrew development has proceeded along four main lines :–

  1. (1) Aerodynamic design.

  2. (2) Materials.

  3. (3) Adaptation to engine and aircraft.

  4. (4) Fans for cooling and ventilating purposes.

Section (4) I have omitted. It may form the subject of a paper elsewhere. Section (1) I have barely outlined. It is of great interest, but I have concentrated on Sections (2) and (3) as being of immediate practical concern.
