Following various comments I've re-read Orrin Linday's Plan of Aerial Navigation, made a few changes, and now feel reasonably confident that the text is more or less accurate. I'll be adding a link to it on my site, and posting info on it to the online books page etc.
Please feel free to link to it etc, it'll be permanently on the site now.
