This book explores the future of aviation. It was developed by students in a class titled "The History of Aviation 1800-2200" offered through the Honors College at Oregon State University. The course reviewed the history of atmospheric flight and, in parallel worked with the students to generate a vision of the future, specifically at a time when their grandchildren become aware of objects in the sky - about 2050.
