Says james Il Co,weN. patent office
expert. who examines personally near
~ all the models submitted:
Pen per cent Of the success of ev-
cry flight is due To the machine. * per
cent 70 the motor and - per cent 10
the man. The man Of indecision. poor
judgment. weak nerves or slow judg,
ment is as much out of place in all
airship as a defective motor"
Among the special points TO which
inventors are paying attention is the
matter Of motors Electricity as mo
ti,e power il being considered care
fully. Presen, day electric motors are
too heavy. Ii may be that some Edi-
son will devise a means of drawing
electricity out Of the sky. SO that the
aviator can use Il as he flies. Stabiliza-
tion-the keeping of the machine in
the proper position to continue flight
and not turn turtle-alSo occupies much
OF the time Of the Investigators.
II is safe assumption that the aero.
plane in something like its present as
pect as 10 general principles will have
become by the date of the next inter
national aviation meet. to be held in
England. a fiier that will do things
even Lore startling than were done at
