This started off as a video on propellers, then took a turn towards early aviation history and myth busting. In regards to propellers, I'll cover blade angle, pitch, aspect ratio, efficiency and more. In regards to history I cover some myths about early aviation and the efforts of the Louis Bleriot, Santos Dumont, the Wright brothers and more. Before anyone says anything, yes I know the difference between a blimp and a dirigible. However many of Dumont's designs including No. 9 are described as both blimps and Dirigibles and I couldn't find the plans to them, so I used both terms. Also, there is a middle ground in which some airships used blimps with a keel beam. Please support the channel: The Official auto and Air Fan Store is Here!

The primary changes were to subtitles, which are now easier to read and on screen a bit longer before fading out.
