“ Proposed to be extended by the author to include the aerodynamics and aerodonetics of flight. The whole science concerned with the flight of an aerodrome. Thus the present work may be entitled a Treatise on Aerodromics, and the whole subject of aerial flight would be dealt with at a College or University by a lecturer or professor of Aerodromics. ”
