Ever hear of cone express.

Yup. Dennis Wingo had a great idea. But it's not uncommon in aerospace that a good idea needs to get "rediscovered" a few times before it finally succeeds. I'm glad that the modern aerospace attitude towards "well we tried that once and it didn't work" wasn't in operation in 1903...
