Dorr Field.
Arcadia. Florida,
August 2a. 1918.
Friend George I do not know
v hot her you are still in Cordova, or
i! yo i h ive entered the service, as
you mention you intended to do when
I passed through. Howe\er, in any
ease 1 presume this would he for
warded to you llavi* intended writ
ing you time and again, hut now I'll
make my intentions good.
The last time I wrote you I was
awaiting my orders They finally
eamo. assigning me to the engineer
officers* school at Itoston Tech. There*
T went through a stiff course in all
the phases of aeronautical engineer
ing. and was graduated and received
my commission. I was then assigned
to the l.e Rhone rotary motor factory
at Swis vale. Ra., just outside of
Pit I sburgh, where I specialized on
the Re Rhone for six weeks, studying
R in every detail and running numer
ous h sts 1 11 mention on. t< * t i!. *t
was run, in which the motor ran con
tinuously for sixty-four hours with
out even a miss. Tli.it i 'onsil u *1
quite a record for a rotary The ’ •
Rhone is similar to the Gnome, hut a
much better motor. It’s a nine-cylin
der of 80 and 110 h p.
From the Re Rhone factory 1 have
been sent here to Dorr field, which
is an advanced pursuit field Here 1
have charge of the inspection depart
ment. having 150 ships to look after,
most of them being of the single scout
type. Th** work is very interesting,
and I surely do enjoy it This field
has flu* highest percentage of ships
in the air of any field in the country,
tin* average percentage being 90 per
cent of the machines flying every day
The air is stirelx thick with ships
v hen they all get up. and when they
start stunting it’s some sight When
I first came here I surely got a large
and heavy dose of stunting. The sec
ond day here I went up and got in
about two hours’ good flying The
next day the same pilot took me up,
and when we reached an elevation
high enough he said we would try a
few stunts. Well, he sure did!
Started to loop and when he did six
loops we bounced into a tight spiral
Well, by that time I pretty near had
a bellyful, hut we then zoomed up a
little higher and he threw her into
a tail spin. Well, then I concluded,
here goes nothing. Rut by the time
I thought it was all over tin* ground
for me, lie threw her out of the spin
and kicked her into a “split.” A few
of these, and then we came hack. Rut
1 hid very little “pep" left when we
finally landed. Now I’ve gotten quite
used to it. and next week I start tak
ing flying instruction. When the war
is over III he able to look into the
aerial mail route proposition in
Alaska Ought to he a fair opportu
nity, don’t you think?
Write me soon, as I’m quite anxious
to hear from you and news from Cor
dova. Sincerely, TOM.
