Our invention relates to that class of flying machines in which the weight is sustained by the reactions resulting when one or more aeroplanes are moved through the air edgewise at a small angle of incidence, either by the application of mechanical power or by the utilization of the force of gravity.
Indeed megan and also covering improvements to sailplanes (gliders) as well as aeroplanes.

It is aimed across two classes of aerodyne and certainly not a claim for the
invention of one.
