do better than the railroad or the mo-
torcar, and Its nse will therefore be
limited to these, for we must realize
at the start that the airplane has de-
cided limitations. We see numerous
pictures today of aircraft as large as
ocean liners, but these are merely vain
Imaginings. We shall have no air-
planes as large as the Lusitania.
Any one who understands the funda-
mentals of air mechanics will Irnmedl
ately understand why this is ao. The
airplane Is built essentially upon the
same principles as a bird. It has the
same flying capubillfes as a bird and
precisely tfie same limitations. The
best flier among birds Is the humming
bird, and certain Insects, which are
much smaller,.such as the dragon fly.
are also wonderful fliers. It is a law
of nature that the larger the bird the
poorer its flying ability.
There are excellent mechanical rea
sons for this. The main one is that
as a bird Incret/nes In size Its weight
increases at a much greater rate than
the area of Its wings. T.Uua tf a bird
doubles Its size It would need, to lift
Itself In the air, not twice as much
power, but eight times as much—that
la. its weight increases as Its cube,
whereas the area of the wings in-
creases as Ita square. This Is the prin-
ciple that limits the size of birds, and
It is also the principle that limits the
size of airplanes, which fly just as
birds fly. Each Increase In size de-
mands a much greater proportional In-
crease in motive power, the result bn
Ing that we have to add to enormously
to the weight, that the airplane soon
reaches a size where it cannot leave
the ground.—From Interview With Or-
rille Wright by Burton J. Hendrick in
Harper's Magazine.
