The Wings of the Future by Richard E. Byrd
Commander Byrd predicts rapid aviation growth over the next fifteen years with one airplane for every hundred people, expanding air travel to be as routine as trains with amphibious planes and skyward platforms. He details Europe’s airports, commercial routes, and safety statistics while urging advances in braking, engines, and radio to support a global air network.
