He was not aboard the ship however, when it

From the time the Los Angeles arrived as the

February, 1929, Settle was one of the ships off,

as engineer officer and finally as executive off,
Ger, standing Commanding officer" watches
While he was radio communications officer
Settle was also a student in the courses given
at Lakehurst for balloon and airship pilots By
January, 1928 he had qualified as pilot of all
types OF hghter-than-air craft, including free
balloons. kite balloons and blimps, and got his
license as Naval Aviator (Airship)." That
course at Lakehurst took him through every
thing that had to be known in the handling
ana control Of airships-piIoting, engineering
rigging, navigation, ground handling dock rou-
tine and other duties
After that basic training and during his ex-
periences on the Los Angeles, Settle was also
instructor in the ground school and in lighter
than-air craft ct Lakehurst
Today, as inspector of naval aircraft at the
Goodyear Zeppelin plant at Akron, he is con-
sldered high authority on this type of ayia-
ton and Is responsible for every feature that
goes into the building Of what win be the larr-
est airships In the world, the zRs-4 and
ZRS-5.
RUT Settle was keenly anxious to ny heavier
tnan-air craft. At the first opportunity.
therefore, he began training on his own time
ana at his own expense in heavier-than-air
nylng. That was In February, 1929, and he con-
unued training during his on hours until he
GOT MS private pilots license last March.
AT the same time, while in Akron, he be-
came interested In gliding and Joined the Akron

vanceo groups Of its kind in the country. Prof

Settle came back to America in the Sum-

at Annapolis in electrical engineering ana
aviation radio engineering. Even then, he only
by chance veered toward aviation.
About this time" Settle recalls Officers
were being encouraged to take special courses
in electrical engineering, and that's how got
into it. Then, when q call came for Volun-
teers in aviation radio, I signed up for that"
For two years he went to school, year at
Annapolis and another at Harvard, then back
to the Naval Bureau of Engineering at Belle
vue, until in July, 1924, he was ready for active
duty as aviation radio engineer.
