Henri Coanda is a scientist with a special personality impressing by the diversity of the areas that he addressed with remarkable results: aeronautics, propulsion systems, cooling devices, prefabricated materialss and more. He is an eloquent proof that a complete scientist is also an artist, but one might say just as well that a complete artist can not be completely devoid of scientific knowledge. Moreover, Coanda had talent and was interested in sculpture, painting and music.In 1902 he enrolled on the sculpture classes of master RODIN where he met Constantin Brâncuşi. I would say that Coanda’s most important and active quality was his imagination, a synthetic quality which opened way to analytical thinking. But let us restrict our attention to the field of aeronautics. On March 18, 1906, Traian Vuia made his first complete mechanical flight attempt with his machine able to take off from a flat surface by on-board means without outside assistance. On June17, 1910, Aurel Vlaicu flew for the first time in Romania. In October, the same year, at the Paris Air Show, Henri Coanda exhibited his device COANDA 1910 (Fig. 1), an airplane without a propeller, the world's first aircraft equipped with an aeroreactive engine.
