Abstract
Gas turbines as power plants for airplanes now are providing competition for the highly developed reciprocating engine. They may utilize only the thrust of the exhaust gases as a jet engine, drive a conventional propeller, or combine the two actions. Comparison of the three reveals their relative advantages and fields of application.
