Transverse Control.--Ailerons fixed to the trailing edge of the main surface at either end control the transverse balance. They can be operated by pedals or by the side-to-side motion of the lever, as desired. These ailerons are 5 feet wide and 2 feet deep. Keels.--There is a large horizontal keel placed well out in front, and called the "leading plane," 14 feet wide and 3 feet deep. It exerts a considerable lift, and is set at a greater incident angle than the main surface, thus employing the principle of the dihedral angle for longitudinal balance. The incident angle of this plane can be altered at will. There is no rear tail. Propulsion.--A 30 horse-power Green engine, placed at the center in front of the main plane, drives direct a T-foot propeller at 900 r.p.m. The position of the propeller is a curious one, working as it does in a slot in the framework. Mounting.--The mounting of this machine on the strong and serviceable skids is one of its distinguishing features, and one which has been highly praised. There is little doubt that in rough landings a framework of this kind is about as safe and strong as could be desired. It resembles the old Wright frame in many respects. On each skid at the front, below the seat, is fitted a pair of wheels attached by springs, and at the rear are two smaller wheels. The Seat is very conveniently placed out in front of the motor as regards comfort, but in case of accident this disposition is dangerous. The center of gravity is very far forward, and necessitates a considerable lift on the part of the "leading plane." Speed, Weight, Loading and Aspect Ilatio.--The speed is about 46 miles an hour.
