Then be begins his checkup. You
ask him about. a few of the 1872
instruments. He says most Of
them do not mean a thing. He
says if you just give him the
Sperry directional gyro and ar
tificial horizon, he is happy.
Remembering the difficulty in
crawling into the cockpit, you
ask him what happens when he
wants to get out quickly, as for
instance, when a pilot Is making
a crash landing and knows the
plane will probably burst into
flames.
Whitehead replies that when
that happens the pilot just does
not get out. It is only a mat
ter of seconds Until the bomber
is enveloped in flames after
striking the ground.
He says the best bet is to bail
cut while the machine is still in
the air. There are emergency
matches for that. One is d.
.ectly over the pilots head, but
because the pilot Is like the cap
tain of ship he cannot leave
until the crew-the navigator,
second pilot, observer and rear
gunner-have cleared from the
plane.

we walk across the field where

as if it was zero hour as they
stream out from operational

Whitehead goes back to his

that it is too bad the weather

that weather does not mean a
