Advantages of Process in
Plane Construction Recog-
nized by Manufacturers.

The inverted in-line motor employ
ing air cooling is enjoying a strong
recrudescence Of popularity among
aeronautical engineers, several foreign
and domestic manufacturers employing
the advantages of this construction in
recent models.
The factor of pilot visibility is per-
haps the most important in deciding
the downward placing of cylinders in
the inverted motor. With this arrange
ment the nose cowling of the plane
may be curved away from the pilots
line of vision, resulting In greater
safety, particularly in landing.
fabrication is cared for, as in other
modern aircraft motors, by employing
the dry sump" system, in which oil
is pumped from the crankcase as soon
as 1t Is used, to be run through the
ducts which feed bearings.
Inverting the motor results in plac-
ing the propeller higher than usual,
which in turn permits Of lower land
ing gear, thus lowering the center OF
gravity and adding to the safety OF
landing.
Four -in-line air-cooled motors have
been popular power for light English
sport planes for several years. Larger
motors of this type, inverted. have re-
Gently made their appearance in Am.
erica and Germany. A new motor OF
this type is the Curtis Crusader. a

NAVY DEPARTMENT EXTENDS
LANDS GUGGENHEIM TOUR
Naval Officer Expresses De-
sire to Continue Work Until
March q, 1880.
Probably viii Take Over Much
of Active Direction of Aero
nautical Research Fund.

Extension of the tour Of duty of Capt.
Emory s. Land, U. S. N, former assist
ant chief of the Navy Bureau of Aero
nautics, with the Daniel Guggenheim
Fund for the Promotion of AeronauticS
until March 4, 1880, has been an
nounced by the Navy Department. AL
though Capt. Land has had more
than 80 years of service with the Navy
and is eligible for retirement, he ex-
pressed desire to continue his work
with the Guggenheim Fund, obtaining a
siX-month extension of his original one
years leave.
Capt. Land now is vice president and
treasurer of the Guggenheim Fund, and
as result of the appointment OF
Harry Guggenheim, president of the
fund.- as Cuban Ambassador, he proba-
bly, will take over much of the active
direction of the funds aeronautical re-
search work.
Though he did not enter aviation un-
til after the, World War, Capt. Land In
1918 took an active interest in the
formation of the Navy Bureau Of Aero
nautics and, though on duty in London
at the time, was consulted relative TO
the organization. He assisted in draft
ing the first naval air policy and was
directly concerned with carrying 1t out.
Perhaps his most outstanding work
was in connection with the five-year
Navy aeronautical building program.
Capt. Land always has been vitality
interested in experimental developments,
and took a direct part in inducing the
Navy shift from wood and wire to all
metal construction. He encouraged de-
velopment of oleo landing gears, land
ing brakes, amphibian gear, r1ooring
masts, anti-corrosion metals and the
use of Handley-Page wing slots.
A strong believer in flight test
competition, Capt. Land was instru-
mental in creating the fight test sec
ton at the Anacostia Naval Air Sta
tion, which is considered one Of the
