This eBook focuses on rocket planes—aircraft that use a rocket engine for propulsion. In the early through mid-20th century, aviation and rocket enthusiasts followed in the footsteps of the legendary Wan-Hoo, as they pioneered novel combinations of the rocket engine with various types of airplanes and gliders. Their efforts not only blazed trails in aviation, but also led human beings to the threshold of space.
