Murphy Preferred Golding. it was now just beginning to get light. a mist lay on the water and an eight-knot easterly wind was blowing. The wirelesa operator and the Bring engineer arrived and climbed into their places. the pilots appeared in ttying hit and got on board. and the waders. in their. weighted boots and waterproofed up to their armpits, came out of their hut. The flight com- mander gave the signal and the work. ing party ran the tirittg boat down the slipway. As the firing boat entered the water she floated from the trolley, taxied clear. and then, the firgt pilot opening his engines full out. the trail structure. driven along the water by 600 roaring horsepower, leaped for- ward and took the air. It was a quar- ter after 5 o'clock. Across the North Sea. When "77" turned out to sea and steadied on her course. the iirtrt pilot new below him through the mist. with. in the encircling arm of the harbor. the tall sheds ot the station. the light cruisers and destroyers " anchor. the submarines nestling close to their mother ships and the minesweepers disentattttlinq themselves from their own particularly crowded dock pre- paratory to beginning the day's work. He then glanced back down the hull of the boat and saw the second pilots busy with notebook and wind tables working out the course. the wireless operator thtrtring his gadgets " he tuned in with the station. and the en. gineer going over the petrol pumps. This was the eighth time the itrttt pilot had been out on a similar errand, but so tar he had been unsuccessful. . A: '77 passed out and our the well- inown buoys at the mouth of the har. bor the migt shut in, so the that Nlot brought the boat down to no toot, throttling back his engines until she was doing a steady sixty knots. Pit. teen minutes later the Ihlpmh light vessel was passed. the hat thing to be seen until the Dutch bland! were sighted, and from that time on the navigation was done by campus, dead reckoning and inspiration. . Fit;een minutes later the Bight com? wander was stumbling about in one of the dimly lit seaplane sheds among the monstrous shapes of the flying boats, when a marine sentry, recogniz- ing him by his language, turned on the roof electrics and ttoodmi the shed with light. Flying boat No. 8677. tlt. ted with specially large petrol tanks tor the Job in hand, stood on its wheel- ed trolley just inside the doors. The working party pushed it outside on the concrete urea in front of the shed. turned its nose toward the water, and handed it over to the engineers, who started and tested the engines. The man told ott tor the purpose put on board a package of sandwiches. the tive-day emergency ration in case the boat came down at sea. the Red Cross box and the pigeons. The working party made last a stout line to the rear of the trolley. The first lieutenant rang up the duty onicer. who, wretched youth, slept, or rather did not sleep. with a telephone for bedtellow, tor No. 1, who sunered trom insomnia, always developed a thirst for information be- tween ll o'clock at night and 3 o’clock in the morning. The duty omcer turn- ed out the duty night commander. who, after pulling on an overcoat, crossed the quarterdeclt. As he did so he cast an eye aloft, snitred the air, promised himself that it would he a good tlying day, and entered the ship's ot11ee. Here he found the quartermss- ter rolled up in a blanket, sleeping in a perilous position on the edges of three chairs, and turned him out. The quertermlster hurried across the of- fice s' quarters and put a match to the galley tire, turned out the duty stew- ard to try eggs and bacon, called twenty hands of the working party to get out the fiyintt boat, and " engin- eer party to start the engines, and warned the wireless operator, the tir ing engineer end the two pilots” In the days ot the Royal Navy Air Service, when seaplane pilots wore blue and gold, and naval routine was followed at Felixstowe. the first lieut- enant, one grme morning in 1917, was awakened before daybreak by a tele- phone call from the Admiralty. Con. sider the ringing of the bell the pets. ble dropped in the sleeping pool, and observe how the ripples widened, and ever widened, until they broke on the coast of Germany.

More- over, the airship has the advantage that it is able to reduce speed in flight, and the resistance tails very much more rapidly than the decrease in speed. At 46 miles per hour in. stead ot st so the percentage of re- sistwce is only 1.92, or less than that ot a motor-oer. ' in the one of seroplanes. the horse- power required (to overcome the re- sistance) in proportion to the weight lifted remains nearly oonstsnt for all sizes of machines, but in airships the larger the ship the smaller proportion- ete resistsnee it otters to the sir. Therefore, in order to " " the same - s smiler proportion of lift has tit be devoted to the engines. and, still more Important. to patrol. so that a line “are of it In available sénun And (night.

Lancaster. in his book, "The Flying Machine from an Engin- eering Btandpoint," gives the follow. ing "urea for some of the methods of transport in common use today, and to this list has been added a " ton airship, travelling at a speed of 60 miles an hour: For example, supposing a. perem- bulator, complete with child, weighs 100 lbs.. and the force required to putrts it along " a certain speed amounts to 5 Itm., then the percentage of tractive resistance tor the peram- bulator " that speed is tr. Obviously, the lower the percentage the more " tieient is the' vehicle. This term, whilst it has rather a learned aspect. is in reality vary easi- ly understood. To discover the resist- ance value of any form ot transport all that one has to do is to consider the resistance to travel as a percent. age ot the total weight. A Comparison Show: That the Advan- tage In With the Former. Why is it that an aeroplane re- quires over two and a half times more power than an airship to lift the same total weight, travelling at the same speed? The solution is to be found in a com- parison of what is called the “co-et- tieent or tractive resistance" of the two types of aircraft. The top gunner rolled into the titunes and vanished, three men tell out of the gondola, and, turning over and over, “ruck the water in advance of the, wreckage. Then the Zepplln plunged into the sea and a heavy pil- lar ot black smoke arose. At " minutes after ll, just in nice time for luncheon, and having com- pleted a night ot 377 miles, TT en. tered the home harbor, her second pi- lot tiring Very lights, and the hand, kerchiefs ot the crew thstterfng from the ban-ell: ot the machine guns. Ms '77 cleared the Zeppelin, the first pilot made a sharp righthsnd turn and found himsellt slightly below and heading straight for the enemy. He read her number, L.48. Her immense size staggered him. Then he saw that she was on tirts. Pulling back the con- trols, he lifted the tlying boat over the Zeppelin. and just in time, for, with a tremendous burst of tlame, she broke inhalt. and, each part burning furious- ly, fell backwards in the water. The lookout on the gas-bag evident. ly sighted the tlying boat, tur the en- gines were speed up, her coarse was changed, and two men were observed hurriedly scrambling to the gun in the tail on the gun amid-hip. on top. The tiyintr boat dived on the Zets pelln's tail at a ”reaming 110 knots and passed diagonally across from starboard to port. When about 100 feet above and 200 feet away, the second pilot trot in two burst: from " machine gun. He used only fifteen cartridges. Solid rubber tyred motor AIRGHIP OR AEROPLANE?
