      \textit{R. Seall} has introduced a quaternary operation, called projective substitution, for the points of a line in a projective plane \(\pi\) and has shown that \(\pi\) is a Pappus plane if and only if the projective substitution is superassociative in Menger's sense [J. Geom. 4, 11-23 (1974; Zbl 0268.50012)]. The author proves that \(\pi\) is a Moufang plane if and only if an associativity-type and two cancellation-type conditions hold.
