Why An Airship Can Fly.

Because the Air Resists Motion and Little Device

Of the Jurassic reptiles many NIL
lions OF years ago into the 1irst ny
ing creatures Just as the rainbow
for a long time told men, without
being attended TO. how they might
analyse light and thus learn the Sc
cret Of the composition OF sun ana
stars. so the birds wing offered the
clue TO human flight thousands or
years before men effectively clutched
il. though in both cases the underiy-
ing principle was exhibited in action
every day before everybody's eyes
Nan now mounts with ease higher
than most clouds and higher than any
bird ever goes. for the old stories OF
the condor soaring over the great
Andes peaks have been disuroved- He
can 90 higher because with modern
engines he can develop more power
in proportion 10 weight than bird
can
The advantage OF the bird lies IN
its combination Of propeller and sup
porting plane in a single unit. the
wing This possesses mechanical
properties and adjustments. all OF
which man has not yet been able 70
obtain in a machine. He has to use
supporting planes and driving screws
as separate members.
His source of rOWer-the engine
is far les complete in range Of &C
ton. and less direct IN application
than the birds combination OF nerves
and muscles. working in perfect ac-
cord. So. also. the wings OF birds
and insects. considered as support
ing and guiding planes, are more per
fectly adjusted 10 their work than
the planes Of a flying machine
But in many ways the BIRDS wing
and the aerOplanes are precisely
alike in action The upward inclina-
ton OF the aeroplane when combined
with its forward motion produces a
lifting force out Of the air. Its sur
face meets the air with a push d.
rected downward and forward. the
result being an upward reaction
So the bird when making a stroke
with its wings pushes downward and
forward This Is directly contrary 20
the general but erroneous belief that
2 birds or insects wings strike
downward and backward The re
action upon the moving body Of the
flier OF a downward and forward
stroke or push is upward
The carefully calculated curves
and other details OF aeroplaues are
based upon study Of the mechanical
properties OF wings as nature has de-
veloped them for her flying features.
Among these properties are rotatory
freedom from flexibiiity, which give
a screWlike action. and both up and
down strokes are utilized II We
could perfectly initiate wings we
might utilize them for propulsion
just as the bird does. and then the
separate tscrew could be dispensed

This easy experiment furnishes a

These experiments prove THAT the
air resists the downward motion OF
bodies heavier than itself. as water
does. from which we conclude that
falling through air Is fundamentally
like sinking in water, the notable
practical difference being due to the
vastly greater density Of the water.
which gives il proporti0nally greater

With these experimental results In

as the effective vertical component OF
