Translated from the French by Ledeboer John H. — London, New York, Bombay, Calcutta: Longmans, Green and Co., 1912. — 231 p. An aeroplane is an aerial machine sustained in the air by the support derived from its forward motion, which, therefore, is essential for it to remain aloft. To produce this sustaining force advantage is taken of the established fact that the reaction of...
