school, under the direction of Instructor
Wright, Lieutcnants Lahm and Hum

die the government aeroplanes. pur-
chased from the Wright brothers during
the past summer by the signal corps.
Each officer accompanied Mr.. Wright
on three flights,
Before the sun had risen the aero.
plane was rolled from its shed, and, in
what was practically a dead calm, Mr..
Wright and Lieutenant Humphrey made
flight of more than eleven minutes
duration. The second flight, with Lieu
tenant Lahm in the pupil S seat was
the longest made at the signal corps
aerodrome, lasting for eighteen minutes
and thirty-sevcn seconds. In both
flights Mr.. Wright permitted the lieu.
tenant TO operate the machine unaided.
Well Sustained Flight
The third flight was made in a slight
breeze, Lieutenant Humphrey again ac-
companying Mr.. Wright. The machine
WAS IN the air for over ten minutes.
Mr. Wright, accompanied by Lieutenant
Lahm, then flew for eleven minutes and
thirtv-topr seconds. While the machine
was encircling the field it was pitched

In the evening Mr.. Wright was &C.
companIed on tho first flight by Lieu
tenant Humphrey who handled the ma
chine unaided through most OF the de-
viouS route. On the last flight Mr..
Wright had Lieutenant Lahm with him
for moro than eight minutes. AS the
machine sped around Mr. Wright re-
huquished control of the craft TO his
pupil
While flying with Lieutenant Lahm
and Mr.. Wright the aeroplane came
abreast of 4 swiftly moving express
train. SO close was the machine OF the
air 10 its rival on the earth that it
appeared 10 be night above it. The
disturbance of the air created by the
speed of the train seemed 10 affect the
aeroplanc. which swept down danger
ously close TO the earth. AS tho wind
caught ii and aided it onward, it
seemed 10 gain upon the train,
Longer flights and more difficult
maneuycrs arc now 10 be attempted by
the aviation class at the government

Foulois, who made the famous Alex

Wright, returned today from Nancy,
France, where he had been as the rep
rosentative of the United States army
at the aeronautical congress. lie will
report at College Park tomorrow. il is
probable that he will be added TO the
list of students of aviation.
