Sir Frank Whittle and Dr Hans von Ohain are recognised as co-inventors of the jet engine and they knew nothing of each others work. Sir Frank registered a patent in 1930 and von Ohain in 1936. However the engine of Hans von Ohain was first to fly in 1939 and Sir Frank Whittles flew in 1941
he co invented the jet engine
Hans von Ohain was born in Dessau, Germany.
Hans von Ohain died on March 13, 1998 at the age of 86.
He drove a mustang when he was only 6.
Both Frank Whittle and Hans von Ohain started creating a jet engine at the same time. Whittle created the first working jet engine, but Ohain was the first to power an aircraft
Dr. Hans von Ohain and Sir Frank Whittle are both recognized as being the co-inventors of the jet engine. Each worked separately and knew nothing of the other's work. Hans von Ohain is considered the designer of the first operational turbojet engine. Frank Whittle was the first to register a patent for the turbojet engine in 1930. Hans von Ohain was granted a patent for his turbojet engine in 1936. However, Hans von Ohain's jet was the first to fly in 1939. Frank Whittle's jet first flew in in 1941.

Dr Hans Von Ohain and Sir Frank Whittle
the first jet engine was invented by a engish engineer called sir Frank Whittle but it was later invented in Germany by a Dr. Hans von Ohain, but Frank had already patented the jet engine.
the first person to develope the jet engine was Sir Frank Whittle and was later invented in Germany by Hans von Ohain, but by then Frank had already patented the jet engine.
the first jet engine was ivented in world war 2 by a engish engineer called sir Frank Whittle but it was later invented in Germany by a Dr. Hans von Ohain, but Frank had already patented the jet engine.
The first jet engine was made was in 1930 by Frank Whittle, but it didn't fly until 1941. Han von Ohain made one in 1936 and it flew in 1939.

In France, Maxime Guillaume was issued a patent for the use of an axial-flow turbojet engine to power an aircraft in 1921, but it is not clear that a working design for such an engine is part of the claims of the patent. Hungarian mechanical engineer Albert Fonó filed a patent in Germany in 1928 for several jet engine designs, including a turbojet. The American Rocket Society reviewed Fonó's patents in 1960 and acknowledged him as the inventor of the jet engine.
the first jet engine was invented in world war 2 by a British RAF engineer called sir Frank Whittle but was also invented later in germany by Hans von Ohain, but Frank had already patented it.
Sir Franklin WhittleSir Frank Whittle was born June 1,1907 in Earlsdon, Coventry, England. His wife's name was Dorothy Lee. They had 2 sons. His nationality was britsh. He had a military career that was from 1923-1948. He was an air commadore for World War 2. Sir Frannk Whittle Died August 9, 1996, he was 89 years old. He died from lung cancer. Sir Frank Whittle worked very hard to finish the invention of the jet engine. In order to work 16 hour days he sniffed benzedrine duroing the day and then took tranquillizers and sleeping pills at night to offset the effects and allow him to sleep. Over this time period he became irretable and developed an "explosive" temper. He suffered from stress related aliments such as eczema and heart palapitations while his weight dropped to nine stone 126 pounds.Dr. Hans von Ohain and Sir Frank Whittle are both recognized as being the co-inventors of the jet engine.
