Abstract
I HAVE been much interested in reading Prof. Bryan's statement on the subject of the stability of an aëroplane, but I cannot agree with him in thinking that the solution of the problem is to come from the mathematical side. I should be the last to decry the use of mathematics in such a case, but if the final result is to be absolutely trustworthy, there must be no doubtful assumptions made during the process.
