Forgotten Legends A dream called turbine

As early as the beginning of the century, there had been several attempts to use turbines for the propulsion of land vehicles. However, it was the aeronautical industry that found two important and very different ways to use this type of engine: transferring the power generated by a kerosene turbine to a classic propeller (turboprop engine), or even using the turbine to generate a jet capable of giving the necessary thrust for flight.
