Design for a pair of ailerons, the camber of which can be distorted by the pilot without changing their angle of incidence relative to the wing. The pilot operates them simultaneously, flexing one upwards and one downwards.

"Original application filed March 26, 1914, Serial No. 827, 485. Divided and this application filed September 18, 1915. Serial No. 51,424." Patent US-1916-1326010 makes an analogous reference, to the same filing date and to the same serial number. There is a chance that the original application, which has been "divided", has been superceded by the patents into which it has been "divided". This is an example in which we have more than one patent resulting from one such division. The word "divided" does suggest that this should occur.
