Dr. J. Gibson Winans demonstrates a circular airplane takeoff using a 400-foot line attached to a barrel on a frozen lake. This experiment aims to eliminate the need for long runways. The plane gains momentum through a pinwheel rotation within an 800-foot arc, allowing for a smooth transition to conventional flight. The line is released after takeoff, showcasing an innovative approach to aviation.
