I recently found a book published by the Smithsonian Museum in 1981 that details the aircraft in their collection at the time. It has pictures, small 3-views, history, and circumstances of how they acquired the craft. I was reading about the Langley Aerodrome, and finally found the answer to a question I've asked every time I've seen it: How did it land? It has no wheels, and the kingposts and propellors extend below the fuselage. The answer: After it ran out of fuel, it landed in the water.
