"how to improve the present procedures to achieve the detailing opportunities in aviation industry"?


Wernher Von Braun scored his first success in December of 1934 with an A2 rocket powered by ethanol and liquid oxygen
von Braun and his colleagues designed the first successful ballistic rocket, the A4 otherwise known as vengeance weapon number two or the V-2 for short.

What is happening with Boeing's 747-8 project?



By February of 1946 all the German rocket scientist were moved to White Sands, New Mexico and on April 16, 1945 the first of the captured V-2's was launched in the United States. This signaled the start of the U.S. space program or, at the very least, the ballistic missile program. The most memorable launching at White Sands, however, came on February 24, 1949, when a V-2 boosted a WAC Corporal rocket developed by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory 244 miles into space and to a speed of 5,510 miles per hour, the greatest altitude and velocity yet attained by a man-made object.

There is a Boeing 707, 727, 737 etc. Why no 717 please?

[edit] Origins of rocketry
The origin of rockets as most people think of them dates back over 2,000 years ago when people of the Han Dynasty in China (206 BC – 220 AD) began experimenting with gunpowder and fireworks. The explosive force of such pyrotechnics were eventually adapted for use in propelling projectiles such as cannon, musket balls and fire arrows. Without pyrotechnics, modern aviation and spaceflight would be impracticable; this is because pyrotechnic devices combine high reliabilty with very compact and efficient energy storage: essentially in the form of latent hot gases or as a shock wave as in bolt and cable cutters. Such projectiles do not contain their own fuel, and thus do not meet the definition of a rocket. Therefore the use of gunpowder to propel projectiles is a precursor to the development of the first solid rocket.

What are shock waves+oblique shockwaves on a supersonic aircraft inlet, are they good or bad,?


According to the writings of the Roman Aulus Gellius, in c. 400 BC, a Greek Pythagorean named Archytas, propelled a wooden bird along wires using steam. Likewise a similarity account had also contributed to Lu Ban. However, those rockets does not appear to have been powerful enough for taking off under its own thrust. The ancient Chinese invention of gunpowder by Taoist alchemists with special circles, and their use of it in various forms of weapons like fire arrows, bombs, and cannons resulted in the development of the rocket.

does any one know Northwest airlines fleet since 1926 to now?

The Chinese. The rocket apparently made its debut on the pages of history as a fire arrow used by the Chin Tartars in 1232 AD for fighting off a Mongol assault on Kai-feng-fu.
