Octave Chanute
Octave Chanute (1832-1910), born in France, was a naturalized American. He was a talented and highly-successful civil engineer. Chanute designed the first bridge (railroad) over the Missouri River and designed the Union stockyards in Chicago and Kansas City. Following his early retirement, Chanute took up a never-ending campaign to champion the invention of the airplane. He acted as a tireless publicist, collecting information from all corners of the globe and sending out information to all askers. Of particular import, his long correspondence with Louis Mouillard. Further, the interest of a prominent engineer in matters of aviation lent a considerable respectability to the nascent field. In 1894, Chanute published a compendium of early aviation experiments, Progress in Flying Machines, that was widely read and respected.
In 1896, Chanute became an even more active participant, commissioning several craft in 1896 which were contsructed in William Avery's shop. Chanute's favorite was the Katydid, which featured multiple wings that could be moved about on the fuselage to facilitate experimentation. A second machine, built late in 1896, was the Chanute/Herring Biplane, a small but relatively sturdy glider that employed Pratt trussing to achieve its considerable strength. Both Herring and Chanute contributed to the design, which proved influential the Wright brothers copied their gliders after the basic structure of this glider, for example.

Upon the merger of Travel Air with the Curtiss-Wright Airplane Company, Walter Beech became President of the new corporation. However he desired a more personal participation in aircraft design and manufacture and so co-founded Beech Aircraft Company with his wife, Olive Ann, in 1932. His early Beechcrafts set many distance and speed records and won the prestigious Bendix and McFadden races. Perhaps the most novel among these, with design and performance features years ahead of its time, was the model 17 Stagger Wing Biplane. In the postwar years Walter Beech again applied his design genius to producing a new line of light aircraft, the most famous of which was the "V" tailed Bonanza. Today, Beech Aircraft Company (now Raytheon Aviation) remains a leader in the design, development and production of personal, corporate and military aircraft, as well as in space research.

    In the midst of a blistering heat wave early in July of 1936 a number of people, including the mayor of Gary, aviation historians and citizens of Miller Beach, gathered in Marquette Park to dedicate a plaque to Octave Chanute and his gliding experiments on the beach in 1896. Several people were there who remembered Chanute, remembered that two weeks in late June of 1896 and the flights of the 'crazy old man of the dunes.' While the memory was not fresh, it is certain that many of Miller's residents in 1936 were aware that important experiments in the history of the development of the airplane had occurred on their beach 40 years earlier. In the 60 years since that time the significance and the memory of those glider flights has faded into the past for almost all of Miller's residents. The Significance of the Miller Experiments

    BIOGRAPHiCAL SKETCH
    Octave Chanute (1832–1910) was born in Paris to Joseph and Eliza (De Bonnaire) Chanute.  His parents emigrated from France to the United States in 1838, and Chanute was educated in private schools in New York City.  From 1853 to 1863 he worked in various capacities for Hudson River Railroad.  In 1857, he married Annie James of Peoria, Illinois.  As a civic and consulting engineer, Chanute worked mainly in the construction of railroads and railroad bridges.  However, he is known more for his work in the area of aerial navigation.  He was probably the first person to conduct scientific gliding experiments in the United States.  In 1896 and 1897 Chanute and his assistants made hundreds of glides at Dune Park, near Lake Michigan.  He also designed a biplane, which the Wright Brothers used as a model for their designs.  Chanute was the author of two influential books

    67. Octave Chanute - Biography - Kansas City Missouri History
    When Octave Chanute came to Kansas City in 1867 to engineer the building of the first bridge across the Missouri River, he held the citys future in his hands.
    http://www.kclibrary.org/SC/bio/chanute.htm
    Octave Chanute
    Engineer Hannibal Bridge , designed by Chanute and completed in 1869, made Kansas City the link between the railroads of the east and the trade of westward expansion. This engineering marvel contributed to an eight-fold population growth here between 1865 and 1870. The seven limestone and concrete piers of the mile-long span were sunk into the sand and rock riverbed of the swiftly flowing Missouri River. The center section of the railroad bridge pivoted, allowing tall boats to pass. Once it opened, an average of 18 trains a day crossed, leading to a boom in area population, industry and property values. A pedestrian walkway spanned much of the length of the bridge, and horse-drawn vehicles paid a toll to cross when trains were not operating. The ornate iron Hannibal Bridge was replaced by the current carbon steel version in 1916. After he left Kansas City, Chanute helped to design the early elevated trains system of New York City and became very involved in early attempts at flight, often pursuing engineering experiments with the Wright Brothers. He died in Chicago in 1910, leaving a legacy of innovative transportation engineering across the United States. Written by Susan Jezak Ford Sources

    Octave Chanute (1832 - 1910):
    First flown at the Dune Park location as a tri-plane on Saturday, August 29th, it was found to be too unwieldy. On Monday the 31st the lower of the three wings was removed and some successful glides were made with the machine. A week of bad weather prevented glides until Friday, when 10 or 12 'beautiful' glides were made, the longest 253 feet.
    Octave Chanute and the Wright Brothers:
    When the Wright brothers first became seriously interested in the problem of manned flight in 1899 they wrote to the Smithsonian Institution and requested from it's Secretary everything that had been written on the subject so far. From the materials they received back from the Smithsonian it didn't take them long to realize that Octave Chanute in Chicago had not only become the intellectual clearinghouse for information about experiments worldwide, but highly successful experimenter in his own right.
    Use these photos to help create your own 1897 Double decker Chanute Glider. Chanute's original was the forerunner of the modern hang-glider. The "pilot" hung by his armpits from the wooden supports beneath the lower wing, throwing his weight from side to side to steer the craft. The aircraft featured Chanute's square-truss design, first employed in railroad bridge construction and later used by the Wright brothers on their 1903 Flyer.

    Although the Wright brothers are
    remembered as the first aviation pioneers,
    they were profoundly influenced by Octave
    Chanute. Wilbur Wright claimed that "if
    [Chanute] had not lived, the entire history
    of progress in flying would have been other
    than it has been."
    A renowned civil engineer, Chanute built
    railroads that opened the American West, and designed Chicago's Union Stock Yards. He was mesmerized, though, by the possibility of flight. While in his 60s, Chanute produced a "two-surface gliding machine," which was flown over the Indiana Dunes by a handful of younger associates. His Progress in Flying Machines (1894) quickly became the classic text of aviation experimenters. Chanute later advised the Wright brothers and photographed their flying experiments at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. During this time, Chanute lived at 224 (formerly 413) East Huron Street.

    CHAPTER 5 FIRST STEPS INTO AVIATION What appeared to his family as a time of distraction and loss of direction in his life the period following his return from West Virginia in the summer of 1889 until his surveying business began to succeed in the latter half of 1892 was in fact one of the most creative periods in Huffaker's life. The frequent references to his continual hunting give us a clue to the direction in which his future was evolving. His sister Alice wrote to her brother Robert (October 19, 1889) from Limestone: "Ed has gone hunting, the other day he went out and killed a large chicken hawk, two rabbits, a squirrel, a partridge, and a dove. He stuffed the hawk. He got it stuffed very well, too." As a mathematician and engineer, Huffaker read scientific journals at this time that contained numerous articles proposing and vigorously debating theories of flight. His own interest in that subject increased, and he turned his leisure hours to peering through a surveyor's transit, stopwatch in hand, to document the flights of soaring birds. He carefully observed their wing and body contours in flight. He also meticulously

    Pioneers of Flight
    Since the dawn of history the idea of human flight has intrigued mankind. As the influence of the Wrights' achievements will last far into the future, so will the contributions of aeronautical pioneers who probed the mysteries of flight before Wilbur and Orville solved the problem. The research of these imaginative pioneer investigators influenced the brothers. In studying those earlier works the Wrights found many points that interested them. The knowledge that other pioneers had shared their faith in the possibility of heavier-than-air flight helped their morale. In the pioneers' direct line of descent from the Greek legend of Daedalus and Icarius to the Wrights is Leonardo da Vinci. Da Vinci drew some interesting sketches in the late 15th century, though a machine built from his drawings could not possibly have flown. The interest in England of Sir George Cayley influenced other men to undertake the problem.
    Only a few of the general public could distinguish between a heavier-than-air powered flying machine and a lighter-than-air gas bag equipped with propellers. Few knew that the problem of powered flight was not to fill a balloon with gas or hot air and float in it, or to glide in a complicated kite against air currents. Many among those who realized the obstacles to heavier-than-air flight in a powered machine believed it was as impossible as perpetual motion.

    WRIGHT, Wilbur top West Side News, edited by Wilbur. Already successful printers, the brothers opened a bicycle repair shop and showroom in 1892, and three years later they began assembling bicycles with tools of their own invention. In 1903 the brothers constructed their first propeller, from original calculations; it was about 35 percent more effective than other propellers then available. They next built a 337-kg (750-lb) machine with a 12-hp motor in which, on Dec. 17, 1903, at Kitty Hawk, first Orville and then Wilbur made the first powered airplane flights in history. Despite public indifference they dedicated themselves to the development of better engines and planes. The site of the first flight, now the Wright Brothers National Memorial, is administered by the National Park Service. In 1908 Wilbur Wright set distance and altitude records in France. That same year the Wrights fulfilled a contract with the U.S. Army Signal Corps to produce a plane that could fly for 10 min at a speed of 64 km/hr (40 mph). They then toured Europe, where they were highly honored. Upon their return to the U.S. in 1909 they received further honors. Wilbur became president of the newly incorporated American Wright Co. He died in Dayton three years later, on May 30, 1912, of typhoid fever.
