Mr. Parkin was commissioned to test

eral arrangement was conducive to

of two wings, both.of the thick, strut

The advantage of thick wings, now
widely utilized, is that they enable
builders to use heavy unexposed spaar's
luetead of relying on a forest n11'struts
to strengthen thin wings.

The main item of the installation
iii the air tunnel, in Which model air-
planes are placed and subjected' to
air'flows: to determine the 'action'of
the craft under varying circlfinstances,
usually encountered during the actual
flight. An array of other instruments
of unbelievable intricacy and divers-
ity enable Mr. Parkin cud Mr. Coates
to reach eheir findings with accurary.
Interesting features of the tunnel's
working are that the air instead of
being blown tlu•ough is drawn
through and that the airplane models
are 'nspclyde4 upside dnwn' Li permit

in the nose of the plane as possible

tracting from the stability of the
plane and its steadiness during flight.
The \'arena flying boat was an
other forest fire fighting plane, but is
used as ;a fire suppression craft,
carrying heavy supplies and equip-
meat to the scene of a blaze. ,The
prribfen, to be:solved' in regard to its
construction details was the necessity
of the plane having exceptionally
strong wings to enable it to lift
heavy loads and yet have a narrow
span allowing it to enter small forest
lake' to alight. A barrow wing span
t'siially recluses the lifting power of
the machine but: Mr. Parkin worked
