Edward Henry Heinemann (March 14, 1908 – November 26, 1991) was a military aircraft designer for the Douglas Aircraft Company .
Biography
[ edit ]
Heinemann was born in Saginaw, Michigan . He moved to California as a boy and was raised in Los Angeles . A self-taught engineer , he joined Douglas Aircraft as a draftsman in 1926, but was laid off within a year. After stints at International Aircraft , Moreland Aircraft , and the first Northrop Corporation , Heinemann rejoined Douglas after it acquired Northrop. Heinemann became Douglas' Chief Engineer in 1936. He remained with the company through 1960, when he left to join Guidance Technology . In 1962 he joined General Dynamics as Corporate Vice President of Engineering. In this position he oversaw the development of the F-16 . He retired in 1973.
The airplane designer Burt Rutan listed Heinemann as among the leading pioneers in aviation who had inspired him to become an aerospace engineer.[1] [2]
His approach to aircraft design was uncomplicated, once saying that he simply took the most powerful engine available and designed the aircraft around it.[citation needed
Designs
[ edit ]
During his long career at Douglas, Heinemann designed more than 20 combat aircraft, primarily for the U.S. Navy , including many that became legends in aviation history. His designs included the following aircraft:
One of the first aircraft to be designed by Heinemann was the Moreland M-1 Trainer of 1929, a braced -wing parasol wing monoplane . Due to the 1929 recession only a small number were sold before the company ceased trading in 1933.[4]
Awards and medals
[ edit ]
The Naval Air Systems Command awards the Edward H. Heinemann Award annually to an individual or group that makes a significant contribution to aircraft design.
