Loops Loop Twice,

But they were surprised to see him
ascend anew Again he climbed to
5000 feet and then turned sharply
downward. And before the spectators
could catch their breath Pegoud had
"looped the loop" twice in his aero
plane.
To-day he is being hailed as the
greatest Of all the aviators since the
Wright brothers startled the world
with their epoch making revelations.
He has started also what probably viii
be a series of fatalities, as scores of
young aviators. enthralled by the
spectacular performance, have vowed
to emulate the Frenchman. First of
all to announce this intention was
Gustav Hamel young British avia-
tor, who has purchased Bleriot mon
oplane, like Pegoud's. and will make
the attempt at flying upside down
within few days.
II is understood now that number
Of aviators, particularly the daring
American, Lincoln Beachey, have con-
templated the loop the loop" feat in
an aeroplane. but that all have been
dissuaded from the attempt by friends
or relatives. The feat is said to re-
uuire certain unusual quality of
temperament, an absolute ignorance
of fear, such as Pegoud possesses.
Another incentive to the daring
hirdmen is the new speed record es-
tablished recently by Maurice Provost,
the FrenChman who won the Inter-
national Cup by flying 124.2S miles in
SO minutes, an average OF more than
two milesSa minute. Ambitious avia-
tors are already trying to better this
mark.
