What is Contrast?

Like a compare and contrast essay, a contrast essay asks you to choose two or more items and ideas and write about them. However, instead of highlighting similarities between the two things, a contrast essay will describe how they are different. It is important to note that, in order to have an effective contrast essay, there must be some similarities or shared middle ground between the things being contrasted. A contrast essay that focused on the differences between a roller skate and the planet Jupiter would contain a lot of contrast, but would be almost incoherent. However, a contrast essay that focused on the differences in Earth and Jupiter would start from the point where they are similar (planets in the same solar system) and then highlight differences.

Important aircraft in aviation history

The aircraft that I have chosen is North American F-86 Sabre. This aircraft was a transonic fighter aircraft and was developed by North American Aviation. This aircraft is very important in aviation history because it was the United States' first transonic swept wing fighter aircraft that could compete with the similar Soviet Union's MiG-15 in high speed fights during the Korean War. It is considered one of the best aircrafts used in the Korean War and is rated highest among the important fighter aircrafts.
