M Progress Made in Aeroplane: At no time navigation h activity as I vuv navigation has there ’been so mucn activity as at present, at any rate as far as this side of the Atlantic is concerned, writes a London Corresâ€" pondent of the Winnipeg Free Press, under date of J uiy 15th. The hero of the hour is Hubert Latham, who by the time these lines appear in print, may have bridged the channel on or 14 u-.. .â€"-_, 4. his wings may have failed him, and. he, after a. heroic 'dive into the deep depths beneath, been picked up by one of the torpedo 'boats which will accompany him below on his flight. After a comparatively short training Mr. Latham has stepped, or rather flown, before the public as a danger- ous rival of the Wrights, ,Farman, “Jana" findv 3and several 'others, It has a single propeller which is mounted in 'front of the~ central body, 'close behind which is the moâ€" tor. Another notable feature of this machine isfihatthe pilot has a most 1 comfortable seat and is well protect- ed from the wind,- while at the same time his position allows himto keep a clear outlook. Those who have seen the machine "describe the under! frame as being an exceedingly clever bit of work; it resembles the frame- work of the Canadian ice boat, and is designed to well receive the first shock of landing. Another feature of m. Latham’s monoplane is that its machinery enables it to be start- ed without the use of extraneous me- ous rival of the wrignts, yaw..." ‘ McCurdy, Cody 3and several 'others, intrepid men, who are seeking the conquest of the air. From all accounts Mr. Latham is considerable of a genius in naviga- ing aerial machines, and with ‘ the exception 6: the Wrights he has re- mained in the air longer than any other iiving navigator. The mono- plane, which has been designed by a Frenchman, I consists of a skifiâ€"like body from each side of which a. main 4-_J plane springs When Mr. Latham announced his in« tention to fly the 'channel, , consider- able scepticism Was expressed hy, ext perts, ’but these were shortly con- founded 'by the aerialist having made a flight of over an honr’s duration. Interviewed a, few days ago Mr. La- tham stated that speed was the se- cret of his success. With a. wonderful eight cylinder petrol motor, he ”is able to thrust back the air so forci- bly was to attain a, speed of sixty rui‘lps arr hour.
