We were asked to research one aspect of the history of flight. We had to put our ideas into paragraphs. How do you think I did?
The Jet Engine
In 1920 Frank whittle stared making the first jet engine. Believe it or not I actually thought jet were made in the early 1800. Anyway the jet engine was trialled in a N3 Hornet well a short name for a jet plane and it worked.
The jet engine over the last 20 years has been improving and getting faster and faster. Did you know that the jet flies at 550 km an hour.
Jet engine works on a number of different fuels and fans. Fans pull the air through the turbo jet and forces it out again.
In conclusion, the jet engine was an important thing to be able to fly fast and it just made things a lot easier.
