New Type of Seaplane
Is Being Experimental
With By Manufacturer

London, Eng, June 27-Experi-
ments, the cost OF which is already
100000, have recently been made by
a west of England aeroplane com
pany with a novel kind Of seaplane-
This machine is fitted with a marine
addition to an aerial propeller. Be
meath the bOatlike body of the ma
chine are four legs, to which are at
tached a number Of small. fixed blades.
The marine propeller drives the water
against the blades on the legs with
sufficient force to lift the body of the
machine clear Of the surface at which
poinE the aerial engine is brought into
operation and the machine rises into
the air.
The advantage Of this machine will
be that it will enable the pilot TO naSi-
gate his craft on the surface of the
water when he is forced 10 descend

If tn . seaplane is successful Il will
probably fOreshadow a type of huge
seagOing craft able TO travel alongside
the fleet or patrol boats like a de-
stroyer- Such a machine would also be
able to carry a ton OF more of ammuni-
ton or fuel. and il would enable the
