Octave Chanute From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search This article needs additional citations for verification Please help improve this article by adding reliable references . Unsourced material may be challenged and removed (March 2009) Octave Chanute Octave Chanute (February 18, 1832, Paris – November 23, 1910) was a French-born American railway engineer and aviation pioneer. He provided the Wright brothers with help and advice, and helped to publicize their flying experiments. Contents Railroad engineering Aviation Quotes See also ... edit Railroad engineering Hannibal Bridge from 1908 postcard Octave Chanute was widely considered a brilliant and innovative railroad engineer. During his career he designed and constructed the United States' two biggest stock yards Chicago Stock Yards (1865) and Kansas City Stockyards (1871). He designed and built the Hannibal Bridge which was the first bridge to cross the Missouri River in Kansas City, Missouri in 1869. The bridge established Kansas City as the dominant city in the region. He also designed the Illinois River rail bridge at Peoria , and the Genesee River Gorge rail bridge near Portageville, New York

Octave Chanute—A Champion of Aviation Octave Alexandré Chanute made outstanding contributions to aviation through his detailed descriptions of aeronautical accomplishments, his development of successful man-carrying gliders , and his advice and encouragement to others engaged in flight research. Octave Alexandré Chanute. Born in Paris, France, on February 18, 1832, Chanute became a naturalized American citizen when he moved to the United States.   A self-taught civil engineer, he was a talented and highly successful professional who became known for his original designs and construction of complex bridges and railroad terminals. He began his career in railroad construction at the Hudson River Railroad in Ossining, New York, where he experimented in material preservation, which led to his invention of the method for pressure-treating wood with creosote that is still being used today. Chanute designed the first railroad bridge over the Missouri River and the Union stockyards in Chicago, Illinois, and Kansas City, Missouri. Later, his experiments with gliders contributed to the science of flight, the areas of control systems and stability, efficiency of materials, and aircraft structural integrity and strength. Using his knowledge of braced-box-structure in bridge construction, he invented the familiar strut-wire-braced wing structure still used in biplane aircraft.

Home Collection Aircraft Staff Giftshop History Map Info Links Calendar Forgotten Aviation Pioneer John Montgomery by Steve Clugston Curator of Exhibitions March Field Air Museum The year was 1883, barely 2 years after "the Shootout at the OK Corral" in Tombstone, Arizona. The old West was still in existence at this time, and the Indian Wars were raging throughout the Southwest. A few hundred miles to the west, another history was being made which would pave the way for the next century, and perhaps the next millennium: A man flew on the Otay Mesa in San Diego, California. His name was Professor John Montgomery. John Montgomery with an aircraft that he designed Montgomery's 1st glider flight, (certainly, the first in anywhere, barring England's Sir George Cayley's "launching" of a "boy" in 1848) was in 1883: as maintained by the San Diego Historical Society, which documented his work on the Otay Mesa from 1882. This would be a minor point, although some historians claim 1884 instead, there is still the point not addressed by most historians who fail to see any connection with Montgomery's publications in Chicago in 1893 and 1894, subsequent to his development of a tandem-wing flyer, and Prof. Samuel Langley's parallel and "coincidental" emergence of a tandem-wing flyer I agree Montgomery was not the first, obviously Cayley and others, probably deserves that credit, as far as 1st

The Wilbur and Orville Wright Papers Photography and the Wright Brothers [Side view of glider flying as a kite near the ground, Wilbur at left and Orville at right . . . [1901]. Glass negatives from the Papers of Wilbur and Orville Wright, Prints and Photographs Division Library of Congress. LC-W851-121 Among the materials acquired by the Library of Congress in 1949 from the estate of Orville Wright were 303 negative photographic plates. Nearly all these glass plate negatives were taken and developed by the Wrights themselves between 1898 and 1911. The images are as important as the Wrights' diaries, notebooks, and letters to knowledge and understanding of the brothers' historic accomplishments. Rarely in the history of science and technology is it possible to see, analyze, and study a crucial technology as it was developed, and the value of the Wrights' materials can be judged by imagining how historical understanding would be enlarged if photographs existed of ancient Roman, Renaissance, or even eighteenth-century technologies as they were being developed. It is no accident that there is a photographic account of the Wrights' work, for the brothers' use of a camera to record their experimentation was consistent with their deliberate scientific methods. Wilbur and Orville were aware of photography's importance to their work, both scientifically and historically. They purchased their first camera about the same time that they began their kite and gliding experiments, in order to build a visual record of their failures and successes. The camera, a Korona-V, was one of the finest and most expensive cameras of its time, costing eighty-five dollarsa considerable sum a century ago. It is presently displayed at Carillon Historical Park in Dayton, Ohio.

Nov. 23, 1910, Chicago), U.S. aeronaut whose work and interests profoundly influenced Orville and Wilbur Wright and the invention of the airplane. Brought to the U.S. at an early age, Chanute was educated as a civil engineer and built railroads and railroad bridges before turning to aviation. Attracted by the work of Otto Lilienthal and other Europeans who were experimenting with gliding flight, Chanute (then in his 60s) established a glider camp on the sand dunes of Lake Michigan near Chicago. There he and his associates made about 2,000 gliding flights without accident in machines of his own design. Chanute was particularly interested in problems of control and equilibrium, and the data he accumulated proved extremely useful to the Wright brothers in evolving their earlier designs. He was in constant correspondence with the Wrights and on several occasions visited Kitty Hawk, N.C., during the period (1901-02) of their gliding experiments, which preceded their successful powered flights.
