Abstract
Reading of Jules Verne’s death in March 1905 made Chanute pull one of his favorite books from the shelf, “The Clipper of the Clouds,” [1] which can indeed be considered the ultimate manifesto of the nineteenth century’s quest for heavier-than-air flight. Learning from others and sharing information was part of growing in the engineering profession; Chanute’s philosophy about technical education was that a student should be well grounded in the general principles of science, taught where to look for information and learn how to use the tools of knowledge.
