rangement of Mueller's. A fifth pro-
peller is used for steering. The ma
chine, according to it's inventor, can
be propelled either backward or for
ward, similar to an automobile and
with just as much ease.
Uses Some Aluminium
Wherever aluminium and light mate
rial could be used Mueller has not hes
itated at the expense and has installed
them. The supporting plane has a sur
face of 5000 square feet, which is much
larger, according to Mueller, than any
machine built to date. The ratio is
one-half pound of weight to every
square foot. He emphasized the point
that his machine will be supported by
the plane, regardless Of whether the
engine is being operated Without US
ing the full power of the engine Muel-
Ter said the propellers are operated at
rate of 800 revolutions a minute, but
a much higher speed than this can be
maintained. He declared confidently
he can attain a speed of sixty to
eighty miles an hour and can rise from
the ground at speed of about eight
miles an hour.
In addition to the two small wings
at either end that correspond to the
head and tail of a bird the Mueller aer-
oplane has two wings on top which
serve as lifting planes and also as a
brake. All these small wings are op-
Grated by footpower and levers locat-
ed close to the engine.
Has Appliance for Stability
What appears to be novel arrange
ment is Mueller's plan of aiding the
motion of the aeroplane and steadying
II by the use of a series of thirty-six
small propellers operated in semi-cyl-
lndrical boxes directly beneath the
cloth plane. These small propellers
are operated at the same time as the
motion propellers, but at, a slower rate
of speed. They serve to keep the air
moving through the framework be-
meath the plane and at the same time
keep the machine in balance. A rud-
der at each end of the aeroplane is
worked in conjunction with the smaller
adjustable planes to guide the ma
chine.
Captain Mueller makes use of the
friction drive for his propellers. This
consists simply of a large aluminium
fywheel. against which a leather
trimmed drivewheel fits tightly at right
angles. By shifting the position of
the drivewheel with lever from or to-
ward the center of the hywheel, any
desired speed may be obtained.
Captain Mueller declared he will
make trial trip in a very short time
He said if the proper prizes are Of
fered he will make attempts to get
some of them and will go to the Avia-
tion field from Venice under his own
aeroplane's power and not by wagon
He said tonight:
II have worked out this machine al
together according to my own ideas
and not according to the plans of
others. l know from actual experience
with air currents what must be done
to overcome them and have reached
the proper solution. 1 know can
make this machine fly successfully and
will prove it. The fight from Los An
geles to San Francisco ought to be
open to all airships. 1t would induce
inventors to take more interest in the
meet"
