Online Pass - How Rotary Winged Flight Has Changed Our World
What do Mozart, beating Blofeld, and saving lives have in common?
The answer, of course, is rotary winged flight! WatchTony Bray's fascinating talk online to discover how rotary winged flight has changed our world.
Hear about the transition from fixed wing to rotary wing flight and the brave people who risked their lives to overcome the myriad of challenges they had to face.
The initial flight of the Sikorski VS300 in September 1939 set the standards for future helicopter design, but was he the first? Be ready for some surprises!
Using photos, maps, and video clips, Tony will examine how the early prototypes developed into the wide variety of specialist machines we have today. The fast pace of development was inevitably driven by huge defence budgets, resulting from the never-ending series of World conflicts.
Drones are having a far-reaching effect on warfare and are re-writing the way future officers of all three services are being trained. Drones are also being used for so many different civilian uses, and Tony will look at some of them.
You can either watch live from 7pm on Monday 22nd September and join in the Q&A, or you can view the talk on catch up at your conveneience.
