Sentences with LILIENTHAL (5)
When children come into the library we put the inkstand and the watch on the high shelf until they be a little older." About the year 1870 a young German engineer, named Otto Lilienthal, began some experiments with a motorless glider, which in course of time were to make him world-famed.
For nearly twenty years Lilienthal carried on his aerial research work in secrecy, and it was not until about the year 1890 that his experimental work was sufficiently advanced for him to give demonstrations in public.
Lilienthal's flights, or glides, were made from the top of a specially-constructed large mound, and in some cases from the summit of a low tower.
Later on, Lilienthal abandoned the glider, or elementary form of monoplane, and adopted a system of superposed planes, corresponding to the modern biplane.
His glides were at first made with a form of apparatus very similar to that employed by Lilienthal, and in time he came to use much larger machines.
