Learning to Fly—No.ll

Instruction in S-Turns Given Times Air Student

BY LOWELL NUSSBAUM Times Aviation Editor TN my flying lesson at Hoosier airport today, I received instruction in making S turns and 180 degree hanking turns to lose speed and altitude, when necessary, in corning into the field. "When you see you are so close to the field and so high that you will overshoot the field, it sometimes becomes necessary to make an S turn or 180 degree turns to lose altitude without approaching the field too quickly,' my Instructor, Bob Shank, told me. “Os course, you should attempt to gauge the distance and height accurately. so this will not be necessary.” We practiced this several times, between takeoffs and landings. I had a hard time today keeping the plane headed on a straight path, into the wind, on my takeoffs. As I got the plane headed in the right direction, ready for the takeoff, Shank pointed out a tree a few hundred yards beyond the far side of the airport, in a straight line w:*h the plane. 'Try to keep the plane from swinging on your takeoff,” he said, “and keep that tree to your left.” a a a ON each takeoff I let the plane bounce a little and get out of line, and for a minute I was too busy to watch for the tree. Each time Shank called my at-

. tention to the tree, always to the i right of the plane. At this point. Shank decided to i see what I could do on a takeoff and landing without instruction, j “Just oretend you are making a solo flight," he told me. ! The takeoff was a little better, i By leaning far out over the left ; side I could see the tree. As I reached a height of about three ■ hundred feet I began a very gradual turn, banking very slightly, and circled around, facing the other end of the field, heading into the wind, as usual. Cutting the motor too late, I was forced to make an S turn, as I was too near the field. Straightening out on a line with the wind after I had lost sufficient height, I continued gliding. ana PULLING up the nose gradually, to stretch out the glide, as we were about thirty feet high, I got the plane m Just the right position and mad* a perfect three-point landing. I received a little praise on that one. Then I tried another. This time I pulled the nose a little too high Just before the wheels touched and they bounced a little. Tonight I am to attend ground school class again at Hoosier airport. Classes are held each Tuesday and Friday night, flying stu-

dents and some who are not taking flying lessons yet, attending. In the classes taught by Shank and Harold C. Brooks, students are shown the theory of flight, meteorology, navigation, rigging of a plane, the various parts and operation of a motor, and many other points of knowledge necessary before one can become a good flier. Cats are subject to comparatively few diseases, and fewer still of these are of a contagious nature.
