The Brattleboro daily reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1913-1955, 1922-09-16

The whole civilized world has been
interested in the success of the gliding
planes recently demonstrated in Europe
Yet, while they were regarded as open
ing an entirely new branch of aviation
and as rather marvellous achievements
in themselves, few persons believed they
would ever come to be of any practical
use
Glenn H. Curtiss. an American leader
in airplane development. has suggested
two possible uses for the glider. One
is the small motored plane which would
make use of gliding possibilities as well
as of its comparatively small engine.
Such a plan would cost less than 1000
and would be suitable for very general
USE for sport and commercial purposes.
The other suggested development is
the air train Mr.. Curtiss has been ex-
perimenting recently with sea gliders
TOwed by a speed boat, a glider rose
from the water and reached height of
30 feet While the glider is in the air
the tug on the tow line is not great In
one flight, when the tow-Iine was cut
the plane stayed up 40 seconds, then
alighted gracefully and safely on the
water
Mr. Curtiss believes that this is the
| forerunner of the air train-a series of
elders tOwed by hydroplane. starting
| from the water level and rising as high
! as necessary, following the motored
plane easily and alighting safely at the
end of the trip. There my be trains OF
| elders tOwed by airplanes.
Gliding experiments are so new that
it is impossible to prophesy their full
future development. 1t is more than
likely, however, that the successes so fan
achieved have been merely beginnings
opening the eyes and minds of inventors
and air-engineers to a big new field Of
experiment and progress.
