Three drawbacks of airplanes, from safety point of view, are their tendency to stall, their high landing speed, and low gliding angle; attention drawn to new form of control which will give powerful stabilizing effect over wider angular range than with wing-tip slot and which will at same time enable machine to be landed more slowly and at steeper angle of descent.
