If there was such a reference, then that would be very useful.

Cheers,

I have never seen this thread, but the flying machine erroneously attributed to Baranovski - but in reality devised by O.S.Kostovich - has been extensively covered in another thread, including a scan of the Scientific American 1883 article with the misattribution.

Look at this thread here.

Cheers
