EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Lon Eugene Delagrange (1872-1910), a pioneering figure in the early days of aviation, standing proudly next to his innovative creation, the Voisin-Delagrange II. The image, taken in early 1908, showcases Delagrange's unwavering dedication to the field of aeronautics as he poses confidently before his aircraft. Delagrange, a French engineer, was an influential figure in the development of early airplanes. He began his aviation journey by collaborating with Gabriel Voisin, a renowned automobile manufacturer, to build the Voisin-Delagrange I in 1906. This groundbreaking aircraft was the first to feature a monocoque fuselage, a design that would later become standard in aviation. The Voisin-Delagrange II, showcased in this photograph, represented another significant advancement. It was the first aircraft to feature a wing warping system, allowing the pilot to control the ailerons by bending the wings in opposite directions. This innovation greatly improved the aircraft's maneuverability. Delagrange's pioneering spirit and technical prowess were evident in his designs. The Voisin-Delagrange II, with its sleek lines and advanced features, was a testament to his ingenuity and his commitment to pushing the boundaries of what was possible in flight. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a fascinating insight into the early days of aviation and the pioneers who shaped its history. Lon Delagrange's legacy continues to inspire and influence aerospace engineers and enthusiasts alike, reminding us of the incredible progress that has been made in flight technology over the past century.
