Some Facts About Aeronautics.

How an airplane stays in the air.

air service in a recent bulletin. Few
people know" says he, that about
IS per cent of the actual lifting force
OF the air Is due to the suction on the
upper surface of the airplane wing
panel. while only 33 per cent can be
credited to the actual pressure Of the
air on the under surface. 1t also is
a Significant fact that the amount of
force required to move q small line
through the air is as great as that
required to move a streamline air
plane strut several times its diameter.
The influence of the streamline was
formerly not understood and seldom
taken account of in the design Of the
struts. fuselage and landing gears of
the airplanes. Scientific research and
of smoke through the wind tunnels
have revealed the necessity of cutting
down head resistance. thus decreasing
what Is known as drag or drift. The
actual course of the air introduced

tually be seen by the eye through the

into the air, but 1t is hard to get 1T
out without creating a disturbance.

War Maneuvers In the Pacific.
The Atlantic and Pacific fleets will
meet of the Pacific coast OF Panama
next January in their first joint ma
neuvers, designed to keep the Navy
ION its toes during peace time.
That was decided at a recent confer
ence between Secretary Daniels and
Admirals Wilson and Rodman. the
feet commanders who will work out
details. 1t is practically certain. how
ever. that a mimic battle between the
fleets. approaching as nearly as pos
sible actual warfare. will be arranged
1t may serve also as an actual test of
the Panama canal as an element Of
naval strategy.
After the practice is at an end the
combined feet will visit the principal
Pacific coast ports OF the United
States so as to give the people there
an opportunity to see the nations full
naval fighting force. 1t will be the
first time that the entire battleship
strength has visited the Pacific coast
since the Atlantic feet made its cruise
around the world In 1907-08.
The fleet which will steam out Of
the Panama bay for San Francisco
next year will be many times larger
and more powerful than that which
the late Rear Admiral r. D. Evans
took through the Golden Gate in 1908
after a voyage around Cape Horn.
There will be sixteen battleships Of
the dreadnaught class-the same num-
Der that circled the globe-perhaps a
dozen second line battleships, eleven
cruisers and all the supporting units
