/ Henry MATTHEWS (2002)
Titre : | The Saga of Bell X-2 : First of the Spaceships - THE UNTOLD STORY | Type de document : | texte imprimé | Auteurs : | Henry MATTHEWS, Auteur | Editeur : | HPM Publications | Année de publication : | 2002 | Importance : | 128 p. | Présentation : | couv. ill. en coul.; ill. en noir et blanc | Format : | 19 x 27 cm. | Langues : | Anglais (eng) | Catégories : | Archives 1 AR-P.TURC
| Tags : | supersonic avion Bell x-2 | Index. décimale : | 629.133 349 Avions à réaction (Jets) | Résumé : | Before the Space Shuttle, there was the X-15, and before the X-15 there was the X-2. This winged missile, barely wide enough to house a man but harnessing enough power to drive a navy cruiser, went higher and faster than any other airplane before. It extended mankind's reach toward space and was in a way a prototype of the winged space vehicles to follow. It was indeed the first of the spaceships and a tragic but heroic milestone in the conquest of space. This is its untold story, with many declassified top secret documents, from the first unpowered flight to the last fatal sortie -- the first one beyond Mach 3!!!. The book includes never-before-seen pictures; biographies of all the X-2's pilots and candidate pilots; seventeen flight test reports; incredibly detailed progress reports logging the day-by-day activities of the project at its apogee, a complete flight chronology with every powered and unpowered flight and many captive and cancelled flights. Brig Gen Frank Everest, the only surviving X-2 pilot, wrote in his introduction: " ... this book is outstanding and I am delighted and honored to contribute. Henry Matthews has very painstakingly documented the history of the X-2 and reading it caused much nostalgia on my part as the X-2program was one of the highlights of my life." |
