Old World

Because gluing of wood members was a very common method of fabricating aircraft during this time, there are innumerable examples. One unusual and interesting example, as mentioned above, is the de Havilland Mo.squito of 1940. In many respects the Mosquito was a bridge between the old world of wood aircraft and the increasingly predominant world of aluminum aircraft (Fig. 2).

Absence from the first developmental stages as in whales and some Old World monkeys suggests that functional substitution is provided by other nasal chemoreceptors. The ganglia and fibres of the terminal nerve system (N. terminalis, Fig. 2.9) are the principal candidate (Wirsig and Leonard, 1987). The role of the trigeminal input, although a minor sensor, could well be expanded in a limited capacity (Tucker, 1971 Wysocki and Meredith, 1987 Westhofen, 1987).
