Best Answer

A Romanian, Henri Coanda, developed an engine in 1910 that was similar to the modern jet engine.

Coanda's engine required an external motor in addition to the jet engine so most people accept that his development is not classed as the jet engine that was later developed by Sir Frank Whittle in Britain. Whittle produced the first jet engine that was self supporting and ran without the aid of external equipment.
