What is The Incredible Story of Jets (Kid's Guide to Incredible Technology) about?
Hans von Ohain of Germany built the first working jet engine in 1937. This book describes some of the improvements made on jet planes since then, including the design of the Concorde and super jumbo jets such as the Airbus A380. Students will be introduced to the forces of flight—lift, thrust, drag, and weight—and to the movable parts of jets, including flaps, ailerons, and rudders and how they work.
