Patent US-1907-871926

Extensive experiments which have extended over a period of a number of years have convinced me that the key to successful flying machines is a propeller of high efficiency. A propeller consisting of rotary aero-planes on the lines shown and described has, from actual tests made by me, shown a lifting force of 75 pounds per applied horse power. An aerial locomobile with this type of propeller, built entirely of high grade steel, and having 20 feet extreme diameter, weighs approximately 900 pounds and would have a carrying capacity of 2,400 pounds with applied power of 32 horse power.
