Gammeter Orthopter -- September 9, 2015

Scientific American, 12-October-1907.
The Gammeter Orthopter was an ornithopter, an aeroplane that was supposed to fly by flapping its wings.  My guess is that it didn't fly.  I wonder if the pontoons it sits on carry fuel.  HC Gammeter was from Cleveland, Ohio.
