DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1919 edition. Excerpt: ... They apparently need me here, but I hope to have my position filled before long by some of those who would be willing enough to take it for a while, as I feel that I have served my turn at this school and should be allowed to go where some of my best friends now are taking the long chance in the service of the country. With love, H. Sunday, January 20 Dearest Mother, Another good week has passed without incident of particular note, though a few years back any day of my present career would have seemed monumental.

We stuck to it all morning, but found out later that someone had made a mistake and we were not supposed to work! So now I am very tired from flying in such bumpy air and the mechanics are skun out of half a day's rest. It is a great experience, testing, and my partner, a dear little Frenchman of two years' experience at the front, has taught me many things about flying. We have sort of a rivalry, naturally, over the work, and each day I compare our results on the side. I generally make more flights, spend more time in the air, and work longer hours, but he invariably O. K.s the largest number of planes each day. He can feel all the defects of a machine in a five minute flight, where it usually...
