AM AEROPLANE.
By Telegraph.—Press Association.
Auckland, May 22. A model of an aeroplane, invented by Messrs. A. \V. A. and Claud Barnard, of Auckland, was inspected by a repurler in Auckland. The elder of the brothers stated that lie felt confident that once they could secure the installation of certain parts success would be assured. Like most aeroplanes, the model of the Auckland invention has a long narrow body, formed by top and bottom planes. It is a double-decked machine. Rudders and guiding gear extend from the back, and special advantages are claimed for these over similar fittings on other aeroplanes. Elevators are attached to the front. The full-sized mneiniie will Oe 40 feet by 8 feet, giving about 500 square feet of lifting surface, and a motor w'il be used for propelling purposes.
