Heavier-than-air flying machines with systems of oscillating panels.

When birds fly the arms carrying the wing surfaces have a vibratory motion while the means adopted in this invention consists in giving the wings, while not themselves rotating, a motion of circular translation in a plane at right angles to the direction of flight and causing them to feather to the air stream while rising, but preventing their feathering while being driven downwards.
