History of Aviation
Aircrafts have been around for a century but the history of aviation has
extended over more than 2000 years from the earliest kites and attempts
at tower jumping to supersonic ,and hypersonic flights by powered heavier
than air jets

in mythology of ancient civilizations, humans attributed the ability to fly to

their deities, mythical figures and demons. The ability of the supreme
beings expressed the dream, the trial and the urge of humans to fly
themselves.
In order to fly, they needed wings. So humans over and over again tried to
create wings like the wings of birds or insects.

Leonardo da Vinci ‘s 15th –century dream of flight found expression

in several rational but unscientific design, He introduced lighter-than air.
he didn’t attempt to construct any of them.
The man who gave us wings and was able to fly in his flying
machine in the 9th century was Abbas Ibn Firnas from
Andalusia

Abbas Ibn Firnas made first controlled flight in human history.

His first flight took place in 852. He wrapped himself in a coat
that was reinforced with wooden pieces, and jumped off from
the minaret of Cordoba’s largest mosque. In this time, Ibn
Firnas failed in his attempt, but was lucky enough to be flying
low. His coat served him as a parachute and he fell down
slowly landing without any major injuries.

For next 23 years, Ibn Firnas devoted himself to studying birds, the design of their wings and improving his
flying machine. His new design appears to be a hang-glider which had two sets of wings to adjust altitude and
direction. The wings were made from eagle feather and the surface covering from silk. In 875, at the age of
65, Ibn Firnas made a history of flying.

He jumped from the Jabal Al-Arus Mountain .In this time, his aircraft worked: he jumped and was able to fly
like a bird for at least ten minutes. When Ibn Firnas became tired of flying, he wanted to land but could not
simply because his aircraft, in difference from birds, did not have a tail! He had focused all of his energy in
studying the mechanics of flying and taking off but neglected the mechanics of landing. He crashed and broke
his back. But he understood that birds landed on the root of their tail.
Lighter than air vehicles
Effort to analyze the atmosphere from the 17th to 19th centuries led
to the discovery of gases such as hydrogen , which in turn led to the
invention of hydrogen balloons .

• Lighter-than air vehicles, at first used hot air but started using
hydrogen because it is lighter than air. But hydrogen is highly
explosive and can be triggered by just a spark.

• On May 6th 1937, Hindenburg a hydrogen airship exploded and

crashed on landing in New Jersey.

• Nowadays, airships use helium which is an inert gas.

The first flight
• The Wright brothers, Wilbur and Orville, made the first
successful heavier than air aircraft, the Wright flyer.

• The first flight was on December 17th 1903.After the

Wright brothers first flight, there was an aviation boom.

• Modern-day aircraft giants, Boeing and Airbus, came into

The first plane, the Wright existence. flyer

Various theories in mechanics by physicists during the same

period of time, notably fluid dynamics and newton’s laws of
motion, led to the foundation of modern aerodynamics .

Experiments with gliders provided the groundwork for heavier than air craft, and by the early 20th century advances in
engine technology and aerodynamics made controlled, powered flight possible for the first time
A new era of aviation
• With the first flight over, it marked the era of
heavier-than air flight.
Till now, propellers were being used to power
planes but the introduction of the jet engine made
planes much more efficient and comfortable to fly.

Modern Aviation
• When World War II ended, passenger transport became
faster and more comfortable. Jet planes were immediately
introduced.
• The first jet aircraft was the De Havilland Comet.
• As the years went by, jet engines became better and better.

What is a Museum?
A museum is an institution that cares for a collection of artifacts and other objects of scientific, artistic, cultural, or
historical importance and makes them available for public viewing through exhibits that may be permanent or
temporary
Scientific
Museums have varying aims ,ranging from serving
researchers and specialists to serving the general public

Purpose of museums:
The purpose of modern museums is to collect, preserve, interpret, and display items of artistic, cultural, or scientific
significance for the education of the public. – Learning and access are supposed to be central to the purpose of all
museums

a museum might be seen as a way to educate the public about the museum's mission, such as civil rights or
environmentalism.

Museums are storehouses of knowledge, gathering all examples of each classification of field of knowledge
research and display it

Museum purposes vary from institution to institution. Some favor education over conservation, or vice versa. For
example, in the 1970s, the Canada Science and Technology Museum favored education over preservation of their
objects. They displayed objects as well as their functions. One exhibit featured a historic printing press that a staff
member used for visitors to create museum memorabilia Some seek to reach a wide audience, such as a national or
state museum, while some museums have specific audiences, like the LDS Church History Museum or local history
organizations. Generally speaking, museums collect objects of significance that comply with their mission statement for
conservation and display. Although most museums do not allow physical contact with the associated artifacts, there are
some that are interactive and encourage a more hands-on approach.
Aim of Museums:

Economic health

Family entertainment

History
Early museums
Early museums began as the private collections of wealthy individuals, families or institutions of art and rare or
curious natural objects and artifacts These were often displayed in so-called wonder rooms or cabinets of curiosities.
The oldest such museum in evidence was Ennigaldi-Nanna's museum, dating from c. 530 BC and devoted
to Mesopotamian antiquities; it apparently had sufficient traffic as to warrant labels for the ordered collection,
although there is no source for this information

One of these naturalists and collectors was Ulisse Aldrovandi, whose collection policy of gathering as many objects
and facts about them was "encyclopedic" in nature, reminiscent of that of Pliny, the Roman philosopher and
naturalist. The idea was to consume and collect as much knowledge as possible, to put everything they collected and
everything they knew in these displays
Public access to these museums was often possible for the "respectable", especially
to private art collections, but at the whim of the owner and his staff. One way that elite
men during this time period gained a higher social status in the world of elites was by
becoming a collector of these curious objects and displaying them. Many of the items
in these collections were new discoveries and these collectors or naturalists, since
many of these people held interest in natural sciences, were eager to obtain them. By
putting their collections in a museum and on display, they not only got to show their
fantastic finds but they also used the museum as a way to sort and "manage the
empirical explosion of materials that wider dissemination of ancient texts, increased
travel, voyages of discovery, and more systematic forms of communication and
exchange had produced.
In time, however, museum philosophy would change and the encyclopedic nature of information that was
so enjoyed by Aldrovandi and his cohorts would be dismissed as well as "the museums that contained this
knowledge." The 18th century scholars of the Age of Enlightenment saw their ideas of the museum as
superior and based their natural history museums on "organization and taxonomy" rather than displaying
everything in any order after the style of Aldrovandi.
Modern museums
The first "public" museums were often accessible only by the middle and upper classes. It could be difficult
to gain entrance. When the British Museum opened to the public in 1759, it was a concern that large
crowds could damage the artifacts. Prospective visitors to the British Museum had to apply in writing for
admission, and small groups were allowed into the galleries each day. The British Museum became
increasingly popular during the 19th century, amongst all age groups and social classes who visited the
British Museum, especially on public holidays.

The Ashmolean Museum, however, founded in 1677 from the personal collection of
Elias Ashmole, was set up in the University of Oxford to be open to the public and is
considered by some to be the first modern public museum

In France, the first public museum was the Louvre Museum in Paris, opened in 1793
during the French Revolution, which enabled for the first time free access to the
former French royal collections for people of all stations and status. The fabulous art
treasures collected by the French monarchy over centuries were accessible to the
public three days each.

in the late 19th and early 20th centuries (this is often called "The Museum Period" or
"The Museum Age")many American museums, both natural history museums and art
museums alike, were founded with the intention of focusing on the scientific
discoveries and artistic developments in North America

– Panel show: an exhibit in what documents and photographs are mounted on the wall
– Period room: an actual or recreated room using authentic objects from a special time period
– Diorama: a three-dimensional representation of a particular scene
– Case exhibit: objects arranged inside a glass-fronted case
Aviation museum
An aviation museum, air museum, or aerospace museum is a museum exhibiting the history and artifacts
of aviation. In addition to actual or replica aircraft, exhibits can include photographs,maps, models, dioramas,
clothing and equipment used by aviators.

Aviation museums vary in size from housing just one or two aircraft to hundreds. They may be owned by national,
regional or local governments or be privately owned. Some museums address the history and artifacts of space
exploration as well, illustrating the close association between aeronautics and astronautics.

Many aviation museums concentrate on military or civil aviation, or on aviation history of a particular era, such
as pioneer aviation or the succeeding "golden age" between the World Wars, aircraft of World War II or a specific type
of aviation, such as gliding.

Aviation museums may display their aircraft only on the ground or fly some of them. Museums that do not fly their
aircraft may have decided not to do so either because the aircraft are not in condition to fly or because they are
considered too rare or valuable. Museums may fly their aircraft in air shows or other aviation related events.

Marka is a district of Greater Amman Municipality, Jordan. It is to the north-east of Amman proper. Its
confines include Amman Civil Airport and the Marka refugee camp.

Population as of 2015 was 148,100.

Amman-Marka International Airport (AMIA)

AMIA Established 1950 by the British as a joint military civilian airport it is
located 2.7 NM North East of Amman, the airport grew quickly to
become Jordan's only international gateway. and it is operational 24
hours a day.
In the years that followed, the aircraft using it increased in size, AMIA single
runway 06/24, which was extended from 2,000 meters to 3,286 meters in
1976.
Runway related and other navigational aids were upgraded the same year, culminating in the opening of the
new control tower. However AMIA became more congested year by year, And AMIA lives on for another
reason. Originally built in open countryside, urban development has surrounded it on three out four of four
sides to make it a suburban airport.
An amazing variety of aircraft and people pass through AMIA, and traffic ranges from giant Galaxy C5s, C17,
B747, A340, VC10s and Antonov 124s. not least AMIA extraordinary capacity and its proven ability to handle
all types of traffic. Capable of handling up to 1.5 million passengers a year and able to accommodate the
B747-400s aircraft. and AMIA alternative to QAIA.

over 150,000 passengers passed through in 2006, and there were 33,488 aircraft movements
including 9,920 commercial aircraft.

Libeskind wanted visitors to the museum to
feel the unsettling nature of war. He used a
variety of techniques within the architecture
to achieve this. The route into the museum
itself is confusing, and the curves of the
shattered globe that make up the outline of
the building also continue inside, affecting
how the visitor moves around the museum.

The museum's location in Friedrichshafen, the
birthplace of the Dornier company, and its physical
proximity to Friedrichshafen Airport drive home the
direct link between the early days of aviation and
present-day air traffic.

Vision :
The aim of the museum is to present the technology
of aircraft construction and the history of the Dornier
plant, which was founded in 1922. and to present
links to contemporary history

Among the exhibits are veteran aircrafts some of

which can still fly today. The shape of the museum is
derived from the direct access of the exhibited
airplanes to the runways..

The Dornier Museum offers a unique location with its architecture and light system

The forum's generous proportions, striking architecture – with its soaring ceiling, clean
lines and glass front offering views of the outside exhibits and the airport runway – and
direct access to the lobby, restaurant and outside grounds make it ideal for product
presentations, talks and company events.
Combining cutting-edge architecture with impressive historical
exhibits on an area of 1,200 m², the hangar has plenty of natural
light and offers views of the airport tower and runway – the perfect
stage for events to remember.

The hangar is equipped with an LED screen and a flexible lighting

system, and the size of the space can be adapted to suit your
requirements

The outside area to the west of the museum, directly adjacent to
the museum hangar, is ideally suited as a location for product
presentations, exhibitions and outdoor events of all kinds. The
hangar can be opened up over its entire width and has its own
vehicle access. At over 1200 m², the area offers plenty of room
for photo or film shoots and special art events.

The assembly system of the full-height, transparent panels enables avoiding

construction-based divisions in the building exterior.

This construction material, primarily used in industrial construction, conveys

lightness and formability, and receives a degree of precision that transforms its
expression and significance due to the dimensions of the building perimeter.

Jordanian Armed Forces

The Jordanian Armed Forces also referred to as the Arab Army are the military forces
of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan. They consist of the ground forces, air force,
and navy and is under the direct control of the King of Jordan

First organized army in Jordan was established on 22 October 1920, and was named
the "Mobile Force", at the time it was 150 men strong. On its third anniversary in 1923,
the force was renamed the Arab Legion, consisting of 1000 men. By the time Jordan
became an independent state in 1946, Arab Legion numbered some 8,000 soldiers in 3
mechanized regiments.

In 1956, all British generals were dismissed, and the name was finally changed into
the Jordanian Army. The army fought in several wars and battles, mostly against Israel.
In the 1948 Arab–Israeli War, the capture of the West Bank by Jordan, proved that the
Arab Legion was the most effective army during the war.

It is today considered to be among the most professional in the region, and is seen as
particularly well-trained and organized.
Royal Jordanian Air Force (RJAF)
The Royal Jordanian Air Force (RJAF) is the air force branch of the Jordanian Armed
Forces.

Jordan gained independence in 1946, but its first air bases had been set up in 1931 by
the Royal Air Force. By 1950, Jordan began to develop a small air arm which came to
be known as the Arab Legion Air Force (ALAF).

The Royal Air Force assisted in training this small air arm and provided equipment. The
ALAF's primary fighter was the de Havilland Vampire and a Vickers VC.1 Viking was
operated as a VIP aircraft for use by the King of Jordan.
By 1955 King Hussein realized the need for Jordan to have a more modern Air force, and on 25 September
1955 the RJAF was established.

-By 1958 the Royal Air Force had left Jordan and the RJAF had taken control of the airfields in the country.
-In 1967, in the Six-Day War, Israel destroyed Jordan's Air Force of 21 Hawker Hunters.
-In 1970s the RJAF was modernized. Lockheed F-104 Star fighters were acquired from the United States
following heavy losses in the Six-Day War.
-the arrival of the Dassault Mirage F1 in 1981. The RJAF also acquired Northrop F-5 Tigers via Iran during
the reign of the Shah who procured them from the United States. Cessna T-37 Tweets were also acquired for
the training role.
-1980s Following peace between Egypt and Israel in 1979, the RJAF began to Dassault Mirage F1
modernize its fleet once again. The first part of this program was the procurement of
the Dassault Mirage F1 which became the RJAF's frontline fighter

Jordan assist Air forces in the Middle East, training Bahraini pilots and assisting Iraq.
There is also a close cooperation with the USAF.

The tasks of the air force are to

provide:
•Air Defense •Airlift Operations
•Support Ground Forces •Reconnaissance Operations
•Search & Rescue Operations

The Royal Jordanian Air Force consists of six major air bases in addition to sixteen air squadrons, fourteen I-
Hawk Batteries, two training school (fighter aviation training school, school of air combat). The Royal
Jordanian Air Force Headquarters is at King Abdullah I Airbase in Amman.

De Havilland DH.104 Dove
The Dove was a British short-haul airliner it was a popular aircraft and is
considered to be one of Britain's most successful postwar civil designs, in excess
of 500 aircraft being manufactured between 1946 and 1967. Several military
variants were operated, such as the Devon by the Royal Air Force, the Sea
Devon by the Royal Navy and the type also saw service with a number of
overseas military forces.
