| Abstract | This paper covers propulsion developments in the civil field over the last five decades. It is notable that aircraft have displaced ships and railways for long distance passenger travel, and this could not have been achieved without the continuous development of the aircraft gas turbine. The paper traces propulsion developments from the end of the piston era through the early turboprops and turbojets to the high bypass ratio turbofans of the present. |
