trusted with the problem Involved
in this controversy.
' I am confident that any such
group of half a dozen technical
men would examlno tho ljtnglcy
plane and agree that It could not
have been flown without radical
changes, based on technical data
unknown to Lnntjley.
"Of course. I bated to send the
Kitty Hawk plane away from our
own country, but I felt Hint It
was the only method by which
the controversy would be brought
squarely up to officials concerned,
nnd cause a possible readjustment.
I should, personally, like to see the
