The Use of Compressed Air in Aircraft Manufacture: An examination of the numerous applications of compressed air in the industry to‐day

Abstract

FEW industries can claim a higher level of technological achievement than aircraft manufacture and it is therefore hardly surprising that this industry should have pioneered and developed many new techniques in the fields of production and testing. Typical of the industry's many contributions to technological advance arc the numerous specialised applications of compressed air which have been introduced by leading airframe, powerplant and aircraft systems manufacturers.
