10 FINISH JOB
A British Airdrome in France.—
An artillery observation plane caught
fire while trying to obtain the
range of a bridge. Did the airmen
attempt a landing to escape the
flames or did they remain aloft
to complete their tasks?
The pilot of the plane gives the,
answer in his own words:
“I switched off the petrol supply, 1
and opened out the throttle,” he
•aid. “One steep, swift dive, and
the fire was out.
"Then I hesitated. Should we
nurry off for home and safety, or
continue to shoot, in which a very
little more observing would bring
complete success? I turned to the
observer. He leaned over and in
spected the damage. It was not
very bad really. He shouted into
my ear.
"Let’s carry on!
“I climed again. Our battery
was very soon firing as a battery
all guns—our last messages having
completed the registration; and now
shells were dropping all about the
target. Or part was done and in
a few minutes’ time the bridge was
entirely destroyed. in our excite
ment the faulty engine had been for
gotten, until, with one last splutter,
it gave out completely, it stopped.
"The machine was really on fire,
this time, and I was too late- The
wood-work was burning, independ
ently of petrol or exhaust, and to
dive now would only fan the flames
about my feet. Yet we had to get
to the ground and very quickly too.
I put the machine into a violent
side-slip away from the lines. The
flames were thus fanned towards
the opposite wing. The observer,
leaning over my shoulder, squirted
his fire extinguisher about my feet.
This enabled me to keep control of
the rudder bar. We were down to
1,500 feet, but the heat now was in
tense.
“The fire had reached the right
wing. I pushed down the nose to
hasten our decent, keeping the ma
chine also in a side-slip. The rush
of air slightly changed the direction
of the flames. We were nearly
down. The ground rushed towards
us. I took off the ‘bank’ and ‘flat
tened out’. One landing wheel
touched with a bump, broke away
and continued its course independ
ently. The machine pirouetted on
the remaining wheel, and finally
crashed on its nose and left wing.
“Springing to the ground we hur
ried away from the burning wreck,
only just in time, for a few seconds
later the petrol tank exploded.”
