LONDON, May IA modern Darius
Green has made flying machine that will
really fly. 1t was tested by experts at
Harrow with quite remarkable results.
The machinery consists of steam engine
In boatlike carriage on small wheels, an
aerial screw propeller and what looks like
great wooden sail of Stats like venetian
blind. The machine weighs $50 pounds,
ana dead weights of 16 to ~ pounds addi-
tional were attached during the expert
ments. The inventor, Horatio Phillips,
said it would take u pressure equal to a
wind blowing 80 miles an hour against the
1873 square feet of sail surface to lift the
machine, and he produced current by
means Of 400 revolutions per minute of the
propelley, equal to 35 miles per hour.
The artificial gale blown against the
Stats produced a vacuum and plenum on
the upper and lower surfaces respectively,
thus giving the greatest possible lifting
power. The experiments took place on
circular track. On the first trial, with ~
pounds added weight, the machine when
started ran little way on the wheels and
then mounted three or four feet into the
air, and continued unsupported more than
half circuit when the extra weight was
reduced to 10 pounds. 1t made clear
flight of more than three-fourths of the
circuit of 900 feet. Itdropped to earth and
ran on the wheels only, when it's course
was directly parallel with the rather strong
natural breeze which was blowing. Its
speed was at the rate of % miles an hour.
The machine is in the experimental stage,
the design thus far being principally to
test the new kind of aeroplane. In that
respect these results are regarded a. most
