Light scout planes were not furnished the aviators new this front, so Capt. Alcock designed) and huiit a high speed fighting plane.

While making observations over the German lines the plane in which he was flying was struck by a shell while at a height of 8,000 feet, more than a mile. The explosion set the plane on tire without bringing it down. While the pilot shot the plane toward the) British lines Lieut. Brown fought the! fittttte8 in midair, battling to prevent them from reaching ammunition or gasoleue or trom burning the tnthun. mable wings. The plum ruched the ' the ocean by airplane is at present f distinctly a Job for an optimist. Lieut. Brown's interest in aviation, it is said, was first from an engineer. ing standpoint, when he was connect- ed with the British Westinghouse com. pany, which is now associated with Vickers, Ltd. This is the great Bri. lie, manufacturing concern, the avia- tion department ot which built the [big bomber in whinh they fly, and I which entered the machine in the Lon. don Daily Mail contest. When the ‘war began Lieut. Brown Joined the university and public school training corps. After some training he be. came attached to a Manchester regi. ment and went into France with this outiit in 1916. Later he was transter. red to the Royal Flying Corps, where " he served as an observer. l: Great strain was taken ott the pilot in the long Journey by the fact that the machine is exceedingly stable. Its iinherent stability is such. it is said, that, being fitted with a compensating mechanism, it can be ttown upward, downward or on the level without a hand on the “stick." In other words, the plane will tty itself, although the pilot cannot. of course. relax his men. tal as well as his physical exertions. i Even with one engine out ot com- {mission the Vlmy-Vlckers could "limp" along at seventy miles an hour. Cup. (taiu l‘llvurk. before starting. firmly ex. pressed the opinion that his plane could ilttieh the tiight even it one en- gine failed many miles from land. In any event, he could stay in the air long enough to call by wireless for aid and to hunt for a ship near which to laudl if motor trouble hit the plane mldwayi in the Journey. Equipped as a bomber, with a crew of three men, a bomb load of 1,146 pounds, 470 gallons of gasoiene and other military material such " a ma- !cblne gun. ammunition. etc. the ma- chine weighed 12,500 pounds and could tty at 100 miles an hour. The weight of the armament and bombs is new! used for the great gasolene aupplyi necessary. Both the gunner'e cockpit, f behind the wings. and the bomb rack, have been replaced by great tanks. I I Capt. Alcock and Lieut. Brown sat (side by side in the rounded nose ot the machine. with an instrument board containing all the oil, gasolene, air and engine speed and altitude ‘gauges in front ot them. The cockpit is just in front ot the wings. On either side of it, mounted between the win”, are the two Rolls-Royce engines, with I their spinning. invisible, tour-bladed propellers in front of them acting all tractors. I I The Vickers-Vimy. ulthough over- lshadowed by the huge Htutdley-Pttgtt. it turn dwarfs the little Sopwith in which Harry Hawker set out to blue lthe North Atlantic trail. The Vickers- lVimy wing spread is 67 feet, while that lot the Sopwlth n. 46 feet ' inches.‘ {The plane, like the Australian's, is a. land machine. Capt. Alcock and Lieut. Brown took the same chance " did Hawker, with the exception that in their case they had two engine. to rely upon and did drop their ttutd. ing carriage and wheels as he did. On the other hand, they carried no trot. lapsible boat. I ,-.... ._.-- m. - mm-.. up“... l Their outstanding iiGikik,th.

Brown get out in a squadron on a long dim tance reconnaissance tar behind the German lines. The carburetor of the plane went wrong in the air and the ‘plane was compelled to slide to the ground. Brown was too busy destroy-i ing important military papers to brace himself when the plane landed on rough ground, and the crash landing jammed him so tightly into a corner ot the cockpit that he had to be cut out. Ilia thigh and one leg were , broken and he was bndlv nu . h' The two aviators said they were d only once in real danger. when the a I machine went into a ttat spin owing to the pilot being unable to know how the machine was moving.
