Aeroplano
que vuela solo

Parls.-Despues de varios amos de-
constante estudio y trabajo, los her
manos Mo eau acaban de realizar en-
F'rancia uno de los mas titles inven-
tos, que viene hacer una completa re
voluci6n en- ell campo de la aviacion.
La mejora introducida por los her
manos Moreau consiste en- la estabil'-
dad automatica que puede darse a un
aeroplano, mediante un procedimiento
nuevo: en- vez de que la navecilla es-
t6 r1gidamente fila al cuerpo del aero
plano, como sucede en- la mayor parte
de los aparatos hasta hoy construidos
va suspendida de un eje trasversal ST.
tuado a la derecha del centro de pre-
sion media, de este modo puede per
manecer constantemente en- posici6n
vertical, pudiendo llevar en- su interior
/ dos personals ademls de la GAIA de los
equipos.
Entire los dos asientos que lleva en-
su interior la navecilla, esta colocado
ell tim6n de profundidad que oscila
entire dos cremalleras, y que, por medic
de un doble trinquete, puede detenerse
en- cualquier punto de las cremalleras.
Este sistema permite arreglar facii-
mente la incidencia relativa de la cola
del aparato, dejando en- completa t.
bertad la navecilla, para moverse {
permanecer fla.
Sobre ell eje del tim6n esta montado
un gran pin6n doble, cue por medic

pequeno pin6n doble, flo bajo la ma
vecilla, y sobre ell arbol de proa est.
colocada una pequeTa biela que acciv-
ma directamente sobre la biela de CO.
nexi6n que une ell tim6n de la cola
con la navecilla pendular
Delante del piloto hay un tim6n dc
movimiento trasversal, que puede ac-
cionar sobre las alas, sus pies llev7
un gran pedal que sirve para regir la
direction.
En- el momento de la partida, ell pilo
to lleva en- sus manos los timones; pc
ro una vez que ha alcanzado cierta al
tura, separa la navecilla por medic de
un manubrio que hace bajar subir Ia
cremallera de los frenos, hasta dejar
suspendida la navecilla EN- la parte in
feriOr del aparato. Arregla entonces
