The story of the flight as entered
in the log follows:
"l:l2 A. m. Wednesday, July .;
THE R-Si slowly arose n a l0e
hands of the landing parry ANA was
completely swallowed up IN the low
lying clouds at height of 100 feet.
When flying at night possibly on ac-
count of the darkness, there Is always
a feeling of loneliness immediately
after leaving the ground The lone
liness on this occasion WAS acceptu-
ated by the faint cheers of the land-

the mist after all signs or the earth
had disappeared

at which height she emerged from the
low-lying clouds and headed straight
up the Firth of Forth toward Edin-

"A few minutes after o'clock the
lights Of Rosyth showed up through
a break in the clouds, thus proving
brilliantly that the correct allowance
had been made for the force and di-

the petrol is consumed by the engine.
'An airshiD of this tyne, when most
Of her petrol Is CONSUMED, can rise to
a height Of about 1900 feet

high mountains, looked particularly
