Summary:

A new instrument is described which is capable of simultaneously recording the position of the three controls of an airplane. The records are taken photographically on a standard N.A.C.A. film drum and the instrument can be quickly installed in any airplane. The instrument is of value not only for scientific research on stability and controllability, but also as a means of checking up the flying of pilots.
