Giant Airplane Based on Lesson - From Mosquito New York, July 17--The largest commercial airplane in the world is nearing completion in Connecticut and it can trace its ancestry directly to a mosquito which lived and died in Russia in 1910, . In that year a young man of 27 abandoned experiments that he had been conducting with a helicopter and built his first airplane. To the considerable surprise of his friends the plane flew. It flew, in fact 12 times, But on the 13th hop the en- gine died in mid-air, and the plane crashed to demolition, The young inventor crawled un- harmed from the wreckage and set about discovering the reason for the sudden cessation of the engine. At last, working by the process of el- imination, he came to the gas line, He blew through it and out came the defunct mosquito which had clogged the fuel line and thus, as it turned out, given its life for the advancement of science. "Planes will never be safe," the inventor dccided, "so long as so feeble a thing as a mosquito can de- stroy the power plant. Evidently, what must be done is to have more than one engine so that when the need arises they can be divided, one for the mosquito and one for the plane." vem Thus the idea of the multi-motor- ed plane was born in the mind of Igor Sikorsky, later to become one of the world's greatest aeronautical designers, Three years after he survived the encounter with the mosquito, Igor Sikorsky built the world's first two- motored plane and ever since he has been an advocate of extra pow- cr, for to him the mosquito was symbol of all the things that can happen to a motor which might spell disaster is but one engine is available. During the war Sikorsky built 73 giant bombers with four engines cach, the first such craft ever to be constructed. After the war and the revolution he migrated to the Un- ited States and opened a factory in which he employed fugitives of the old regime, many of them nobles of the Czarist court. His first plane in this country was that in which KRecue Fonck planned to fly the ocean. After an accident which killed two of his crew, Fonck abandoned the Atlantic flight and the plane was sold for commerial work in South America, where it still in service. Sikorsky then turned his attention: to multi-motored amphi- bians and this type is still his great- est interest The flying boat with wheel gear The Sales Manager Says...
