high speed at high altitudes future travel by plane will b at altitudes of five or six miles far above cloud and norm in the calm air of this great height tbinlj a boutarie who contributes an article on the subject to tlu scientific column of the revue hebdoniadaire paris owing to the extreme thinness of the atmosphere at this bright both the air in the cabin and that which feeds the motors will have to he me chanically comprest he writes the construction of airplanes is in continual evolution every year the aeronaut iai salon at paris shows important improvements by which ln- vettors have attempted to increase the speed solidiiy and safety of their machines setting aside for the moment all the technical detail o these improvements 1 would aim lly direct attention to tho progress that seems to he bringing aviation toward highaltitude might many will doubtless ask what good can he accomplished by such an ad vance beyond developing aviation as a sport- they will be greatly sur prised to learn that its effect will be to increase notably the safetv of flight the greatest enemies of aviation fog wind and storm exist only in the lower parts of the atmosphere below a height of about six miles above this all agitation of the air disappears it is a region of calm where storms are unknown the air plane that flies at such altitudes need not fear that it will be lost in fog or carried away by tempest but at the same time that its flight is safer it may also become much more swift the principal thing that limits speed is the difficulty of re ducing it sufficiently in the course of descent to allow a landing to be made if the flight is at a great height the descent will be corres pondingly long and the most quali fied specialists believe that at ten miles elevation a speed of 300 miles an hour would be practicable a primary difficulty which is in truth a serious one at once presents itself how can the pilot and the passengers live during a oug journey at such a height where the air is so extremely rarefied as to be quie unsuitable to breathe tho use of masks fed by pure oxygen quite proper in a merely sporting flight would be uncomfortable and out of tho question in a passenger plane the only acceptable solution would bo to place pilot and passengers in a hermetically sealed cabin where the pressure would be artificially main tained at a point near that which exists at the earths surface the re newal of the oxygen taking place at the same time as the absorption of the gaseous products of respiration the construction of airplanes with buch cabins would present some dif ficulty but the celebrated balloon as cension of professor piccard to a height of ten miles has shown its possibility another difficulty now presents it self we must not only assure the proper functioning of our lungs at euch a height but also of the motors now these utilize the explosion of a gaseous mixture of gasoline vapor and air the rarefaction of the air with increasing height involves a di minution of the explosive force of the mixture and so of the power of tho motor says m boutarie divers plans have been proposed to remedy thi3 one of the simplest was hat of the late auguste rateau of iur academy of scionce it consists in superfeeding the motor as the iltitudo increases by compressing the air beforo admitting it rateau proposed to use a compressor run by ihe motor itself or more economical ly by a small turbine operated by tho gas of the exhaust in ratcaus apparatus a simple valve makes it possible to superfeed tho motor to the desired degree at a height of three miles air would be admitted at a pressure twice the nor mal pressure at this altitude this means also increasing the speed hitherto all the planes built on the rateau plan havo been for military use pilot and observers arc uncov ered and breathe through oxygen masks rut as soon as wo have planes with airproof cabins there will bo no troublo in compressing much fur ther insuring tho
