Aeronautic Instruments
"The development of aeronautic instruments. Vibrations, rapid changes of the conditions of flight and of atmospheric conditions, influence of the air stream all call for particular design and construction of the individual instruments. This is shown by certain examples of individual instruments and of various classes of instruments for measuring pressure, change of altitude, temperature, velocity, inclination and turning or combinations of these" (p. 1).

Researches on ailerons and especially on the test loads to which they should be subjected
Aileron calculations have hitherto given greatly differing results according to different authors. It seems to be the general opinion that it is only necessary to give the ailerons such dimensions that the airplane can maneuver well, that the stresses they must undergo are relatively small, and that they are strong enough if their framework is of the order of strength as the wings to which they are attached. This article will show that the problem is really quite complex and that it should receive more attention.

Specializing for Record-Breaking
This report seeks to determine what constitutes airplane performance and what line should be followed in seeking to break records if the designer is given a free hand. Some of the considerations for designers include the ratio of engine power to wing area, minor refinements, low wing loading, and duration.

Soaring Without Rising Currents
Memorandum describing the main problem of soaring flight, which is that it is difficult to maintain altitude and to engage in indefinite continuation of flight without dependence on rising currents from any source. The best chance of success involves utilizing energy stored in the air when the wind speed is constantly and rapidly varying.
