The mechanic put forth his strength, and turned the propeller round half a dozen times or so to draw petrol into the cylinders.
"Contact," he shouted.
"Contact," came back the echo from the pilot as he switched on.
A lusty heave of the propefler, and the engine was started.
For a moment the machine was held back, while the pilot lis- tened to the deep throbbing of the motor, and then satisfied with its running, he waved his hand, and we began to "taxi" rapidly across the a
...erodrome to the starting-point. The starting-point varies almost every day, as the rule is to start facing the wind.
Then we turned, the pilot opened the throttle wide, and a deep roar behind us betokened the instant response of the engine.
