Text Appearing Before Image:
BOATS. For the purpose of starting from and alighting on water, aero-planes of tractor, pusher, or any type are readily modified. Merely adding pontoons to a tractor, in place of wheels, givesthe hydro-aeroplane; and the construction of aeroplanes, fitted toreceive either wheels or pontoons, as circumstances require, has de-veloped considerably. Craft of this kind are called convertibles. But in order to obtain greater sea-worthiness and better co-ordi-nation in design, a special type of aeroplane has been developed, suit-able only for over-water work. The keynote in its design is foundin its treatment as a boat with wings, rather than an aeroplane withfloats. The aeroboat, or flying boat, therefore, is primarily charac-terized by a staunch, boat-like body, around which the rest of theaeroplane is built. The photographs show several different types. For further discussion of aeroboats and hydro-aeroplanes refer-ence is made to the chapter specially devoted thereto. (Post, f. 143.) 21
