Used for: Historical analogy for overhyped technological transformation narratives Praised: Illustrates how people overestimated the sociological transformation of aviation

"There's a great book, The Winged Gospel. People thought that after the invention of aviation, that civilization was just entering a new era and nothing is going to be the same."
