Describes event held on the 12th (of November) by Captain Cañellas, hosted by the Asociación de Locomoción Aérea of Barcelona. A large audience came and heard Cañellas expound on the principles of aerodynamics, including a historical account mentioning da Vinci, Stringfellow, and others. Cañellas went on to discuss the particulars of airplanes, and recent efforts by Santos-Dumont, the Wrights, Farman, Voisin, Latham, and Blériot. Cañellas concluded with some commentary about Spain's relatively minor contributions to the development of aero technology, and possible relationship to national character.
