Divers moyens ont ele employes pour maintenir l'equilibre des aeroplanes, tels, par exemple, que le gauchissement des ailes ou plans de sustentation, ailerons lateraux inclinables a volonte sur l'horizontale pour prendre des angles differents par rapport au vent; on a aussi construit des aeroplanes dont le centre de gravite peut etre deplace, etc.
