NIgM Flying Psyzb

CAPT. H. afterWard stated that an inter
esting feature Of any night flying is the
vision impairing effect of light In a storm
the effect is aggravated by the rejecting quail
ity Of clouds, falling raindropS and the wet
surfaces Of the aircraft structure. Although
the running lights are shielded on the side
toward the pilot and the observer. Fsht is
reflected into their eyes by the mirrors just
mentioned. Even the fast-revolving propeller
reflects light.
The exhaust flames are the principal sources
of light for propeller reflection, because of the
use of Sho't exhaust stacks from the indi-
vidual cylinders Of the aircraft engine. Ex-
hauSt manifolds with pipes leading aft of the
cockpits, would eliminate this Objectionable
feature, but short stacks are preferable, be-
cause they tend to reduce the fire hazard.
Cockpit lights must be used sparngy, eSpe-
cially in a storm. The pilot must look at
the instruments occasionally, and therefore
cannot avoid the use Of light at such times.
The observer on military observation mis-
sion should refrain from any Use of lights if
possible. He should be so thoroughly familiar
with the country over which the mission is
flown that reference to a map is unnecessary.
record of observations can be written in
the dark by the use OF special writing guide.
The time of each observation can be recorded
by time stamp. Radio can De successfully
used in the dark. The observer must be able
to gaze at the ground below continuously,
without intervening flashes of aircraft-carried
lights, in order that his eyes may grow &C
cuStomed to the darkness, otherwise he will
fail to sec ground objects clearly enough for
accurate Identification.
More important than the vision -impairing
effect of local lights, Capt. H. continued, is
the need for an efficient flight altitude indi-
Gator which will not be affected by air gusts
and other disturbing conditions

squirming struggling world was the return Of
conqueror But right here the advancement of
this story Of her progress misses a cog. SO to
speak.
The Edna Oliver who had returned to her
work with thanksgiving in her heart, enthusiasm
in her spirit, felt herself appalled, at the very
threshold. Somehow, in some way. the new
Edna asked herself almost Immediately queS-
tions that had never occurred to the old Edna.
The years of meditation in the clustered reaches
of the long days and the long nights had
awakened new channels of thought in her mind.

we therefore decided to "cau it a night" and
try to find some place to sleep.
Finally we found couple of seat cushions
and climbed onto a nice, fiat table in the
factory building. This table was used for
cutting wing fabric and was so tall that we
felt the need of parachutes for use in case
we should happen to roll over the edge while
asleep. Having had the previous experience
of sleeping on the limbs of trees during hunt
ing trips, felt quite at home and was able to
sleep soundly. Such, however was not the
case with Capt NJ. The altitude of the table
seemed TO disconcert him, and he slept with
one eye open and focused on the nearby edge.
WHEN morning came it was discovered that
the field was blanketed with fog which,
however, thinned out sufficiently to permit us
to take of for Mitchell Field at 610 am We
landed there little over an hour later, break
tasted, and took off again shortly after 9
O'Clock, heading westward toward New York
City
The impression one receives of Long Island
from the air is that most of the golf courses
of the world must be located there. Long
Island Sound was banketed by fog when we
passed over it at an altitude of about 1900
meath us as We passed over uptown New York.
The downtown section of the big city was
INSTRUCTED by smoke and fog. Forty minutes
later We landed at Boonton N. j., where Capt.
M. transacted some official business connected
with radio experiments.
Our return flight to Washington was pleas
ant and uneventful The visibility was some
what hazy but the air smooth. At Boiling
Field I learned that Lieut. O. had returned
safely TO that field about the time that we
were watching the downpour at the Bellanca
flying field
Lieut. Q. in relating his experiences stated
that when he became separated from us he
decided 10 return Immediately to Boiling Field.
When he neared Baltimore the storm was at
its height, and he found it necessary to circle
the beacon at Logan Field on the outskirts
of that city for about half an hour before the
weather cleared sufficiently to permit him to
resume his journey to Washington. He no.
ticed that the air mail plane was down at
Logan Field, which sufficient proof to him
that the weather ahead was too dangerous"

force him to abolish the turn, he
has maintained q firm stand and
said that before he makes any move

As far as the, out-of-town motorist
is concerned, the driver soon catches
on to the proper method of making
the turn"
Harland has asked that everyone,

ing, was not missed for two weeks
after his disappearance. He had
been brought to the courthouse for
arraignment. When his case was
called two weeks later, 1t was found
he had not been returned to the
Jail since his arraignment.
A cheek-up at the marshaps office
revealed that four prisoners had
been sent from the jail on the day
OF the arraignment and four had
been returned. Officials were at a
loss to account for Cooper's strange
disappearance.
Later it was found an additional
prisoner had been surrendered by
his bondsman and sent to the cell
room. Probably knowing that pris-
Oners are tailed by numbers and
not by name, Cooper is thought to
have hidden in the cell room until
the others had been removed, when
he quietly walked out,
