Synopsis:

Meet the aircraft experts who are working on ways to change the way we think about flying in Dean of Invention: Future Flight.

Particle ray beam weapons, quiet super-sonic flight, magnetic levitation, and hyper-speed are all part of the technology that promises cutting-edge aircrafts for the future. Explore the technology of X-Planes including breaking the sound barrier, early experimentation with the "lifting body" design represented by the X-20 "DynaSoar" and NASA's X-43 Hyper-X, the forerunner of future hypersonic.
