  • Abstract from google patents: "120,450. Blackburn Aeroplane & Motor Co., and Booth, H. Nov. 15, 1917. Planks; planking. -A fuselage, boat, or float in the form of a hollow elongated cone or tapering tube, and more particularly for a flying- machine, is composed of a plurality of layers of wood planking 1, 2 running lengthways from one end to the other, and of similar shapes and sizes in each layer, the planks being connected edge to edge with the joints in the several layers in staggered relationship, as shown. The grain of the wood of an outer layer may extend in a different direction from the grain of an inner layer, and the grains of adjoining planks in a single layer may run in different directions. In order to obtain planks having the grain at right-angles or less to the length, a number of pieces of wood are joined edge to edge to produce the requisite length, and planks are then cut from such compound structure with the grain running at the desired angle."
