WINDMILL PLANE
BELIEVED SAFER
c. U. Professor Says New
Principle Ends Danger
of 'Updraft.'
BY DEVON FRANCIS,
Associated Press Aviation Editor

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 29.-By put
ting two and two together and get
ting sum which looks like a mathe-
matlcians nightmare, research engi-
neers have developed a principle of
flight which eliminates one of the
worst hazards of flying.
DR.. Max Munk of Catholic Uni
versity, Washington, told the FIRST
meeting of rotating wing flight ex-
perts ever held that the so-called
windmill airplane had solved the
problem of "burbly' air which. in the
past, often has sent conventional air
planes into disastrous spins.
The closing session of the two-day
meeting was devoted to an examina-
ton Of the theory of rotating wing
operation. Rotating wings, in con-
trast to the fixed" wings of ordinary
alrplanes. are used on autogiros and
helicopters.
Earlier, predictions had been made
OF the eventual use of "windmills"
for private airplanes and even for big
transports, providing complete safety
IN emergencies for passengers and
crew due to their inherent ability to
lower machine vertically to land
ing on bad terrain.
'WindmilI' Canopy.
The two-pluS-tWo was the sum of
the blades which constitute the wind
mill' canopy above the cabin of the
plane, converted into a mathematical
formula.
When the conventional light air.
plane" said Dr. Munk, strikes an
updraft at low speeds, STALL and a
spin may develop. That is because
the air becomes burbly = loses its
life-over and under the wing.
In contrast, a rotating wing is
little affected by updrafts. The TIPS
OF the blades are going, say, 400 miles
an hour as they spin, keeping the
entire machine in flight. An updraft
OF 4 miles an hour, or ever one of
70 miles an hour. has only a negli-
gible effect on the blades"
Private Flying Expansion.
DR.. George Lewis, director of re-
search for the Government-supported
National Advisory Committee for
Aeronautics, in an interview after the
sessions closed stated:
Rotating wings definitely open the
way for wide expansion of private
nylng in the United States and
abroad.
The rotating wing field is at the
point now where the conventional
alrplane was in the course of its
development in 1914. In six years,
in experiments at our Laboratories at
Langley Field, Va, we have increased
the efflciency-lifting power-of rotary
blades by go per cent

done to beautify the capitals Of other

Germany" Mr.. Brand emphasizes,
has had bumper crops this past sea-
son, her storage Of all farm products,
including wheat, being larger than at
any other time in her history. German
farmers work long. long hours through,
as does German labor. but there has
not been strike in Germany for five
years. This does not mean that labor
Is being suppressed, says MIR. Brand.
1t indicates, he says. that her system
OF settling labor disputes gives general
satisfaction to workers, employers and
the public at large It's basis is q
governing board for each district, upon
which there are representatives OF the

 COMPLETE TRIP

Honolulu, T. H., Jan. 19-(UP)- Tie navy completed its greatest mass flight in history today when Is of it's bombers arrived here after a 257O-mile trip from San Diego. The first of the Alton, two motored flying battleships" landed at 8:43 a. m. (est). Thereafter ships, car rying a total complement of 127 officers and men, landed at regular intervals at the mid-Pacific air base at which they will headquarter
 The first craft of the V-9 and V-10 squadrons to complete the journey touched Pearl harbor 20 hours and 12 minutes after the takeoff from San Diego at 12::36 p. m. (esD yesterday. The time was the fastest ever recorded by the navy in a long mass flight although it was approximately two hours slower than the navy had hoped. Strong headwinds slowed the bomb- CTS on the first half of othe triu. The first ship to land carried Lieut. Commander s. H. Warner. in charge of the flight.
