"?? ;? -Wspdifiigtou?Stands^, Hcroti'auticaT terms, devised and complied by the national advisory committee for aero nautics, have been officially prescribed for use In the army and navy. Here after, the new order states, the offi cers of the two air services will use the regulation nomenclature. For pome time, aerial experts point f out, laymen have been calling any thing that traverses the air an "air ship," whereas the word "alrcreft" should be employed. They aay that all balloons, rigid and nonrlgld air ships, or ltghter-than-air craft, are constantly being termed "blimps," a slang word, now obsolete, but original ly used to designate a nonrlgld air plane fuselage dung beneath the gas bag.

Aerostats comprise ltghter-than-alr craft, embodying a container filled with a gas lighter than air, such as hydrogen, and sustained by Its buoyancy. They Include "air ships" and "balloons." The word "airplane" Is now used to designate craft heavier than air, obtaining support from the action of the air on the wings, and driven through the atr by screw propellers. Airplanes equipped for alighting on water are termed "seaplanes." ."Airships," as the craft formerly known as llghter-than-alr are now tailed, are divided Into three typed; "rigid." whose form la maintained by a mete rite frame within the gaa hag or envelope; "nonrlgid," whose enve lope la kept taut by the pressure of the contained gaa, and "semirigid," maintained by a rigid or Jointed keel and also by gaa pressure.
