is hardly necessary to emphasize that, for any inclination,there is only one speed at which horizontal flight is attained with thegiven load. Each angle has its particular corresponding speed. So that in gradually increasing the angle of incidence of the aero-plane from 1° to 12°, the Lift… … Vol Pique, Nose Down—79.5 m. p. h. Vol Cabre, Tail Down—44.6 m. p. h.
