The Air Path: A Book About Lighter- and Heavier-Than-Air Aircraft

The name of aircraft designer Igor Sikorsky is widely known to all history buffs. This book is unique. Sikorsky finished it already in emigration, but for many years the manuscript gathered dust in obscurity in one of the Paris archives. Only in the nineties it was discovered and published by a New York emigrant publishing house. Now we present it to the attention of readers. In this book I. Sikorsky shares his thoughts: he briefly analyzes the history of the development of aeronautics, recalls his first steps in the field of designing heavier-than-air aircraft and predicts how, in his opinion, aviation will develop. Of particular interest is the comparison of his predictions with how the path to the sky was actually paved.
