On The Aviation Trail In The Wright Brothers' West Side Neighborhood In Dayton, Ohio, Mary Ann Johnson
On The Aviation Trail In The Wright Brothers' West Side Neighborhood In Dayton, Ohio, Mary Ann Johnson
Following in the Footsteps of the Wright Brothers: Their Sites and Stories
The West Side Dayton neighborhood where Wilbur and Orville Wright lived, worked and invented the airplane includes five historic buildings or building sites, all within a block or two of each other, that represent the five major periods in the brothers' lives. This paper tells the story of the five sites at three different periods in time: 1) when they were occupied by the Wrights during the turn of the last century, 2) when they were discovered by Aviation Trail in 1981 and 3) today, in 2001. The stories of the earliest period show the historical significance of each of …

From Wright Flyers To Aerial Thermography: The 1910 Wright Brother's Hangar At Huffman Prairie, Michael L. Hargrave, Dave Babson, Thomas L. Sever, Dwain K. Butler
Following in the Footsteps of the Wright Brothers: Their Sites and Stories
The Huffman Prairie Flying Field, now a National Historic Landmark located at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, was the scene of many of the Wright Brother's activities between 1904 and 1916. Following their remarkable success at Kitty Hawk in 1903, Wilbur and Orville Wright returned home to develop a versatile and marketable airplane. They used Huffman Prairie as a site to test aircraft and train pilots. There they constructed (in 1904, 1905, and 1910) a series of modest structures to house their aircraft. While each of these buildings is historically important, the 1910 hangar is the focus of this paper. From …

Rumors Of Flight: The Photographic Record Of The Wright Brothers At Huffman Prairie, Jeffery Alan John
Rumors Of Flight: The Photographic Record Of The Wright Brothers At Huffman Prairie, Jeffery Alan John
Following in the Footsteps of the Wright Brothers: Their Sites and Stories
Today, one hundred years after the Wright Brothers conducted their research leading to powered flight, we can revisit the period between 1900 and 1905. We know what the brothers did, and how they did it, largely because the Wrights conscientiously recorded their work both visually and verbally. In this sense, they showed an extraordinary dimension of their inventiveness. The camera was an important instrument of their research. The Wright Brothers as inventors had a unique understanding of the power of photography to make an accurate representation of reality (Nolan, 1984). As a result, the Wright Brothers have left us a …

The Wright Stuff: The Mathematics Of The Wright Brothers, Robert N. Mccullough
Following in the Footsteps of the Wright Brothers: Their Sites and Stories
On a cold and blustery day in December of 1903 near the town of Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, two brothers from Dayton, Ohio, Wilbur and Orville Wright, haul an ungainly looking craft from a shed and get ready to attempt a feat that has never been accomplished before - to fly a heavier-than-air powered airplane with a person on board.
The weather conditions that day were terrible. The temperature was 34 degrees F and the winds were steadily blowing between 20 and 30 miles an hour [McFarland, 395].1 The wind chill (according to modern tables) was around 8 degrees F …

Shaping The Adversary Culture, Richard Gaskins
Shaping The Adversary Culture, Richard Gaskins
OSSA Conference Archive
Our varied communities of discourse face a rhetorical future shaped by juridical styles reminiscent of the "adversary culture" postulated by post-war American critic Lionel Trilling. Itself the subject of litigious debate, the adversarial spirit today shows few signs of weakening, but its influence can be better understood and guided along certain tracks. To influence this adversarial style in coming decades, we need to explore the difference between evidence-based reasoning, which draws on the sensationalist logic of induction, and reflexive reasoning, which draws on the second-order logic of presumption. This reflexive style expands in an "information age" saturated with symbolic expression …
