AEROPLANES AT THE STANLEY SHOW.

<...>
   The Steward monoplane shown by the Scout Aero Club is superficially of conventional design but of very small size. The width is only 16 ft., and the length overall 15 ft. The wooden fuselage resembles the type made popular by M. Bleriot. The two wings have a bearing-surface of 75 sq. ft., and are placed at a pronounced angle of inclination. Behind a fixed non-lifting tail plane is a cruciform tail of Demoiselle type pivoted to the fuselage. Lateral stability is maintained by small ailerons fitted to the trailing edge of the main planes. A wheel control is employed, the backward and forward movement of which operates the elevator and a sideways movement the ailerons. The rudder is moved by a foot-lever. An Alvaston 20-h.p. 2-cyl. water-cooled engine is fitted, driving a small wooden propeller.
