older fashioned Wright biplanes and
assembled for altitude in a wind storm.
At height OF three-quarters OF

miles in a wind estimated at forty-hve
to fifty miles an hour above ground.
He managed TO land safely at Brent

eighteen miles an hour few feet

was rising, Latham refused. Brookins,
however. assembled without the incen-

therefore. won the second. or special.
