Page 56 - ... very hard on the organization of our business and the preparation of our case in the suit against Curtiss & Herring. The affidavit filed by Mr. Herring is thoroughly characteristic of him. He has suddenly discovered that he invented in 1894 the method of controlling lateral balance by setting surfaces to different angles of incidence on the right and left sides of the machine and correcting the difference in their resistances by means of an adjustable vertical tail.
Page 27 - The objects of our invention are, first to provide a structure combining lightness, strength, convenience of construction, and the least possible edge resistance; second, to provide means for maintaining or restoring the equilibrium of the apparatus; and third, to provide efficient means of guiding the machine in both vertical and horizontal directions.
Page 56 - In a flying machine, the combination with a single or multiple aeroplane having lateral portions capable of being adjusted while in flight to different angles of incidence, of a vertical adjustable rudder and a fixed vertical vane co-operating therewith to form a turning couple.
