As I was preparing to set my own Aerodynamics exam, my department chair sent me this gem from 1942. http://umich.edu/~caslab/docs/1942_Aero_Exam.pdf
It is pretty amazing that this was barely 37 years after the Wright brothers' first flight. Of course, my mind is permanently blown courtesy of the fact that U Michigan offered an Aeronautics degree within a decade of the first flight (also the oldest Aeronautics program in the country.. beating MIT by a year or so). Felix Pawlowski - an amazing human was mostly responsible for that. In fact, the exam linked above was his.
