Not clear what's new here but it's a whole design, for a standard aeroplane, with horiz and vertical rudders

  • For aeroplane flying machines with extended surfaces, so that when driven at considerable speed, they will be buoyed or sustained by pressure of the air.
  • Goal here: help it rise more easily from the ground, be sustained in the air at a less speed than has heretofore been possible, and be governed and operated more easily.
  • It has a skeleton frame of oblong form and made of a light frame of wood or light metal, and having a supporting plane mounted on the top of said frame, of a pair of planes pivotally secured to the edge of the supporting plane and extending outwardly from each side of said frame, and provided with means whereby said planes may be simultaneously flexed to the same extent in opposite directions. A tail-piece is conveniently secured to the frame and extending rearwardly therefrom, and a vertical rudder and means for operating said rudder, are also provided. Attached to the upper front end of the frame of the apparatus, and preferably in line with the tail-piece, [is] another light and preferably a detachable frame, in which is mounted a front horizontal rudder having a flexible body. By means of tiller ropes, cables, or other well-known connections, the tail-piece, horizontal and vertical rudders, as well as the side planes ma be manipulated to direct the course of t e apparatus. In the car supported from the frame, a motor is conveniently located, to which are operatively connected front and rear propellers, and means are furnished for moving the front propellers in various directions.
  • Tech class CPC B64C9/00: Adjustable control surfaces or members, e.g. rudders
  • Inventor location: Newark, Essex county, NJ (FIPSloc=34013, imputed by HistPat)
  • signed Oct 1, recorded as filed with USPO on Oct 4.
