Patent GB-1913-7448

More later, but this seems to be a full airplane steering system, from the steering wheel, through all related mechanisms, to the tail fins.

(Bureacratically speaking this in one of many cases in which "accepted" and "granted" leave us in slight doubt. Alsom this patent is broadly labelled as a provisional application, though it has provisional and complete application dates listed, with no reference to any earlier or later filing.)
