‎A striking sepia-toned photograph of a Bristol F.2B biplane piloted by pioneering Australian aviator Captain Harry Butler while on an anti-submarine patrol off the coast of Scotland in late 1917 or 1918. At the time Butler was fighting-instructor at the Royal Flying Corps School of Aerial Gunnery and Fighting at Turnberry now a Trump golf resort‎

‎The sepia-toned print image size 232 x 289 mm is behind glass in its original timber frame 425 x 475 mm; the window mat is wood-grained possibly cut from a veneer sheet. Remnants of the contemporary Adelaide framer's label 'Dimond Bros' are on the verso along with the pencilled details of the job. Small scratch to the bottom portion of the image; one tiny spot; otherwise in fine condition. The framer's pencilled notes indicate that the original client's name was Butler almost certainly Harry Butler himself during his brief years in Adelaide between the war and his early death in 1924. An article from the Adelaide 'Advertiser' for Tuesday 21 May 1946 records Butler's own description of this scene in a pencilled note dated 2 February 1918 uncovered on the verso of another example of this photograph. 'It was taken by our school photographer as I was on a Bristol Fighter about sunset to do a submarine patrol. You notice the Christmas card-looking island in the distance. That is known as Ailsa Craige in fact Ailsa Craig and is about halfway between here and Belfast'. 'Harry Butler 1889-1924 showed his enthusiasm and aptitude for mechanics by building models of primitive aircraft while still at school in Koolywurtie; he later accorded farm-work a lower priority than collaboration with a neighbour and lifelong mentor S. C. Crawford in building and flying one of Australia's early aeroplanes. Among the February 1915 candidates Butler alone gained entrance as an aeromechanic to the Australian Flying School at Point Cook Victoria. Commissioned three weeks after joining the Royal Flying Corps in 1916 he became fighting-instructor at Turnberry Scotland in 1917 and chief fighting-instructor at No. 2 Yorkshire School of Aerial Fighting in 1918. He alternated teaching with studying German aerial combat tactics over France and he received the Air Force Cross in 1918' Australian Dictionary of Biography. Our thanks to Mr Les Parsons for providing us with many important details regarding this image. unknown‎

The first of these was designated Aerodrome No. 0 and proved a failure. The second machine Aerodrome No. 1 was powered by a carbonic acid gas and later by compressed air. Aerodrome No. 2 also built in 1891 was also a disappointment. Aerodrome No. 3 1892 was of stronger construction and was modified a number of times. A better means of heating the steam was tested on Aerodrome No. 3 and was a decided improvement and was incorporated into Aerodrome No. 4. By the end of 1893 Aerodrome No. 4 was ready for testing and a launching device atop a house boat was built. unknown‎

‎RUST DANIEL L‎

‎Flying Across America: The Airline Passenger Experience‎

‎University of Oklahoma Press Norman: 2009. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. A colorfully illustrated history of air travel emphasizing the personal experience of commercial flight. Americans who now endure the inconveniences of crowded airports packed airplanes and missed connections might not realize that flying was once an elegant exhilarating adventure. In this colorful history Daniel L. Rust traces the evolution of commercial air travel from the first transcontinental expeditions of the 1920s through the luxurious airline environments of the 1960s to the more hectic fatiguing experiences of flying in the post-9/11 era. In the beginning flying coast-to-coast was an exciting yet uncomfortable journey of nearly forty-eight hours that required numerous stops and overnight travel by train. With time and technical innovation passengers became increasingly removed both physically and psychologically from the raw experience of flying. Faster planes pressurized cabins onboard amenities and stronger safety precautions made flying more convenient and predictable�but also less evocative and sensational. Prior to the 1980s Americans dressed for air travel in their formal best and enjoyed such luxurious onboard amenities as delicious meals and ample cabin space. What made air travel glamorous however also made it more expensive. With deregulation in 1978 cost reductions reduced flying to a more tedious and after 9/11 more regimented experience. Rust's narrative brims with firsthand accounts from such celebrities as Will Rogers and from ordinary Americans. Enlivened by more than 100 illustrations including vintage brochures posters and photographs Flying Across America reminds today's airline passengers of what they have gained�and what they have lost�in the transcontinental flying experience. Daniel L. Rust is Assistant Director of the Center for Transportation Studies at the University of Missouri St. Louis. Includes an Index. "An impressive collection of illustrations photographs and vintage airline advertisements as well as first-hand accounts of passengers to give readers a taste of airline travel through its evolution from being a novelty for a select few to a necessary nuisance for millions." - Wall Street Journal "A delight to read�Flying Across America is lavishly illustrated and full of interesting facts and fascinating characters - some well-known others less so -presents a wonderful opportunity to revisit the glory days of commercial aviation in the country where flight began and so many of its technological innovations and amenities developed." - The Washington Times "Flying Across America: The Airline Passenger Experience is a superbly illustrated and informatively written account of the evolution of commercial passenger service from its beginnings in the 1920s through its increasing accessibility in the 1960s to the Post 9/11 problematic conditions that are the present day norm. Laced through this deftly written history are firsthand accounts from celebrities like Will Rogers to ordinary American passengers. Unique and inherently entertaining "Flying Across America" is a welcome and highly recommended addition to community and academic library Aviation Studies and American Aviation History reference collections and personal reading lists. - Midwest Book Review University of Oklahoma Press, Norman: 2009 hardcover‎
