	Langley Aerodrome A
		Langley mostly ran tests with flat plates, but he also mounted small model airplanes he called aerostats, and even stuffed birds, on the arm.
		Langley's simple approach was merely to scale up the unpiloted Aerodromes of 1896 to human-carrying proportions.
		Charles M. Manly, Langley's assistant, extensively reworked the Balzer engine, turning it into a water-cooled radial that generated a remarkable 52.4 horsepower at 950 rpm with a power-to-weight ratio of 1.8 kg (4 lb) per horsepower (including the weight of the radiator and water), an amazing achievement for the time.

	Samuel Langley, from failure to posterity.
		Samuel Langley however faced the same problems as those of his rivals: mainly the difficulty in obtaining a lightweight engine developing enough power.
		Langley had been convinced early in life, that the internal combustion engine would offer more performance in terms of power/weight ratio than the steam engine.
		Great care had been taken in the construction, and Langley's airplane was similar in configuration to the preceding models: tandem wings, and engine in center position driving two propellers mounted between the wings.
