What reading level is The Romance of Air Fighting book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The clouds now became very troublesome. Ostend was simply a mass of guns. After flying for three-quarters of an hour, I reached Zeebrugge. I had to come down to 5, 500 feet because of the clouds. I streaked in through them, loosed my bombs, and then made off. I was hopelessly lost; I got clear, however, at 4, 000 feet, heading straight out to sea and side-slipping, the earth appearing all sideways on. I then headed straight home and got back after one-and-a-half hours in the air.

Here is the story, from the same pen, but much abbreviated, of a lively [24] THE ROMANCE OF AIR-FIGHTING exploit that had an "unsatisfactory ending. " Harold Rosher writes : Dinner was spoilt through a message from the Commander, which contained instruc- tions for me to drop bombs on an airship shed at Gontrode, near Ghent.
