MAY 24, 1923 FLIGHT" GLIDER DESIGNING COMPETITION " KL" Biplane Glider r --v->." LAST week we published a curve of gliding angles of the " Kj, " biplane glider, the general arrangement drawings of which were published in our issue of April 12, 1923. We had hoped to receive in time for inclusion in this week's issue further particulars from Mr. Ashfield, but presumably he has been enjoying a well-earned holiday, as the expected drawings have not arrived. In the meantime, however, we publish herewith two sets of drawings of " KL ", one of the fuselag& and another of the wings. The wing drawings are fairly clear, but further particulars of the fuselage details are required, such as size of longerons, struts, etc. We hope these will be- forthcoming in time for next week's issue.
