The Fight
After eight months of war It Is now
possible to form some really Just es
timate of the value of aeroplanes In
naval and military operations, and al
so of thu various types of mchiues
which arc found most useful for va
rious specific purposes. It speak?
well for thc mental ability and fore
sight of the<ohicers in high authority
in tho British navy and army, that
practically every one of their fore
casts mado before the war has work
ed out accurately In prctice, but I
though these officers h^ve expressed
their opinions freely, chiefly at meet
ings of thc Aeronautical Society ot
Cr cat 'Britain and at lectures to cer
tadn naval and militury institutions
at various times during the past three
years it was only too evident, even
before the war, that insufllclent at
tention had been paid to them by men
in still bigher political supplies of
aeroplanes were obviously much too
small.
Naturally the first task before Great
Britain, when the wonderful effective
ness of aeroplanes became evident,
was to turn out as many machines as
possible, and In Franco and Germany
also the problem of output effective
ly put a stopper on all serious forms
of experimenting. Consequently, the
tyes bf air craft on both side? remain
practically the same today, as, they
were before tho war, the only differ
ence being that designs which were
proved defective or ineffective were
pomptly condemned, and every effort
was made to turn out as many as pos
sible of those types which had proved
their value.
For this reason the monoplane has
been practically abandoned by all
countries. In England thc monoplane
has never been popular, except among
exhibition fliers and aerial acrobats,
thc objection to it being that neither
tho. pilot nor the passenger ever has
a thoroughly good view below him,
and that for a given horsepower it ls
actually easier to get high speed ou:
of a biplane than out o fa monoplane,
and yet produce a machine which will
lift reasonablo weights and land rea
sonably slowly.
It on o looks at a monoplane and ?
biplane "head-on", one sees that a
monoplano is what is known to every
engineer aa a "king-post girder,"
whereas a biplane ls a "box girder."
Thc actual amount of struts and
trusses and wires j? about the same
in either case, ao that for a given
WI?;A of v.ing from tip to tin, or span,
as lt ls oiled, a biplane lias twp lift
ing surfaces, one above the other,
against the single lifting surface- of
the monoplane, so that it bas twice
the lifting area, and yet the amount of
stuff in Hie way of struts and wires
to be pushed t hrough tho air ls rough
ly about the same; and, as all these
set up what is called "head r?sis
tance," the speed In each case is abort
the sanie; also tho weight of each la
pretty nearly Ute same, because it ls
possible In a biplane, or box-girder
structure, to use lighter main spars
for the wings. ,. .
The greater the surface' of an areo
plane for the samo load, thc slower
Ute Bald machine can land and the
quicker lt will get off the ground.
Which naturally is an immenso advan
tage to*military airmen, who have to
work from any reasonably smooth
field they can find instead of from a
properly prepared aerodrome. All
these advantages taken together give
the reason why the monoplane has
boca ousted by the biplane.
In attacking hostile air craft In the
early part qt the War. the usual wea
pons were either ordinary service
rrflles or automatic pistols, thou-h a
good many pilota, especially the crack
fliers of '.'tabloid.*' scout?, pre'erxed
to use tho old-fashlonedlong-bnrreled
t'olt revolvor throwing a heavy bul
let. They trusted to their own.skill
and to thc speer* of their machines io
escape being hit themselves, and pre
ferred the heavy caliber weapon be
cause ot the smashing power of it?
bullet, as tho ordinary rifle bullet will
go clean through a'strut or a spar
of an aeroplano without doing any
damage.
Ilowe.vcrc.it .aeon became ^evident
that a machin? ?-gun mounted on an
aeroplane was actually the most effi
cient weapon, but there was tho ob
vious difficulty of fining a machine
gun on a "tractor** machine so that
the stream of bullet1? would not hit
tho propeller. Vario is efforts, all or
thom futilo and a good many of them
humorous, have beorr made to get
over this difficulty. Some people
have tried fitting a UKI ch ino gun on
the top of a biplane so as to fire over
the top of the propellor, a,'id fho
French even tried fixing tho gun so
high up on a monoplane that it clear
ed the propeller tip, but of course
the passenger in each case had ' -
stand up to fire, which was exceed
ingly uncomfortable for him, consid
ering that he ir. plowing through tho
air at over 60 miles an hour, and
consequently his shooting was apt to
bc more erratic than effective.
The best system of all ls to amount
a machine gun on tho front of an or
dinary pusher biplane of tho type
which was originated by Mr. Henry
Farman. This system has boon used
for quite a considerable time In ex
periments In all countries, and be
fore the war u good many firms laid
themselves out to produce gun-earry
ing pushers. One of thc most suc
cessful of theso waa turned out by
the big. .armament firm of Vickers,
Him i ted, and the. result is that quite
a largo number of,Vickers gun car
riers arc in constant usn. Naturally
one cannot givn any approximation
.of the number produced since tho war
began.
The success of tills type of mach's?
has, of course encouraged the produc
tion of still bigger things or this kind,
and just before the war it became
publicly known that the Short Broin
era had produced a big seaplane of
160 hp. w.hich carried a 1 1-2 pounder
quick firer instead of a machine gun.
Tills machine was much noticed at the
great review of the British fleet less
tuan a month before the war was de
clared, and naturally''similar weapons
have been produced since, so lt Js
q?ite possible to believe that we are
actually within sight of the aerial
warship capable of carrying at any
