Evolution of the airfoil, 1908-1944. Creator: Unknown
Evolution of the airfoil, 1908-1944. Diagrams showing the historical evolution of airfoil sections. The last two shapes are low-drag sections designed to have laminar flow over 60 to 70 percent of chord on both the upper and lower surface. Examples illustrated include designs by the Wright Brothers, the Aerodynamics Research Institute in Gottingen, Louis Bleriot, the Royal Air Force, and the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Evolution of the airfoil, 1908-1944" takes us on a historical journey through the development of airfoil sections. The diagram showcases various designs by renowned pioneers in aviation such as the Wright Brothers, Louis Bleriot, and institutions like the Aerodynamics Research Institute in Gottingen. From its inception to its evolution over four decades, this visual representation demonstrates how aerodynamic concepts were refined for optimal performance. The last two shapes depicted are particularly noteworthy as they were specifically designed to achieve laminar flow over 60 to 70 percent of chord on both upper and lower surfaces, resulting in reduced drag. As we delve into this image's rich heritage space, it reminds us of the significant advancements made in aeronautics during the early 20th century. This photograph pays homage to those who dedicated their lives to research and development within this field. The United States' National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA), which later became NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration), played a crucial role in shaping these innovations. Additionally, contributions from other countries' armed forces like the Royal Air Force further enhanced our understanding of wing design and aerodynamics. While we may not know who exactly created this remarkable piece capturing years of progress, it serves as an enduring testament to human ingenuity and technological breakthroughs that forever changed aviation history.
