Vulcan Aircraft
Vulcan Aircraft Corporation was an American aircraft manufacturer. History William Burke founded the Vulcan Last Company, a shoe making concern that branched into golf clubs and accessories. By 1927, The Lindbergh boom inspired many to enter the aviation industry. In 1928, Burke partnered with two brothers, Harvey and Wilson Doyle to develop a monoplane of their design. On 31 March 1928, the first example flew from Raven Rock airport Portsmouth, OH. Seven examples of the $2500 Vulcan American Moth Monoplane were built just before the Great Depression set in. Vulcan would promote its aircraft by touring from city to city golf courses having promoter Benny Martinez parachute with a set of Vulcan golf clubs. Martinez eventually broke his leg and Vulcan's chief pilot Pat Love died a year later in a crash. The Doyle Brothers left the company after Wilson was passed over for plant manager. They went on to develop a similar monoplane forming the Doyle Aero Corporation in Baltimore, Ma ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Vulcan American Moth Monoplane
The Vulcan American Moth Monoplane was an early parasol-wing monoplane developed by the Doyle brothers. Development Wilson Doyle graduated Harvard in 1925, and his brother Harvey from Yale the same year. They moved to Detroit looking for employment in aviation and backing for a new aircraft design. Their first job was working as draftsmen on the ZMC-2 airship, then construction on the Hess H-1 Bluebird line. Ford Trimotor engineer Jan Pavlecka introduced the brothers to William Burke of the Vulcan Last Company, which produced golf clubs among other items. They founded the Vulcan Aircraft Corporation. The name of their first aircraft was chosen to capitalize on the popularity of the de Havilland Tiger Moth. Design The American Moth is a strut-braced, high-wing monoplane with conventional landing gear and a tandem open cockpit, requiring the front passenger to enter through the removable backrest between cockpits. The fuselage is made of welded steel tubing with fabric cover ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

NACA Doyle Oriole
The National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) was a United States federal agency founded on March 3, 1915, to undertake, promote, and institutionalize aeronautical research. On October 1, 1958, the agency was dissolved and its assets and personnel were transferred to the newly created National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). NACA is an initialism, i.e., pronounced as individual letters, rather than as a whole word (as was NASA during the early years after being established). Among other advancements, NACA research and development produced the NACA duct, a type of air intake used in modern automotive applications, the NACA cowling, and several series of NACA airfoils, which are still used in aircraft manufacturing. During World War II, NACA was described as "The Force Behind Our Air Supremacy" due to its key role in producing working superchargers for high altitude bombers, and for producing the laminar wing profiles for the North American P-51 Mustang. ...
