EDISON INTEREST TURNST0 LANE Jnventor May Even Make Flight With Some “Oid- } Fashioned Pilot.” By the Associated Press. NEWARK, N. J. September 19.— Thomas A. Edison knows lot about airplanes today, is eager to learn more, and may even fly in one some time if he can find a pllot who'll promise to do no barrel-rolling or outside loops. At Mrs. Edison’s_insistence the in- wventor went with her to the Newnrk‘ airport last night and talked for more than an hour with Lieut. Rithard Ald- worth, director of the airport. | Asks of Stunts, | “What do you do about stunting?” Mr. Edison asked. | “It is forbidden, because of the trans- | port business,” the lieutenant replied. “If a plane should lose its engine in flight, could it go safely to the ground?" | “Yes, a plane now has quite a good | aliding angle.” “How does a plane get out of & nose @aive?” A mechanic worked a plane’s controls to demonstrate the method, | “How low is it safe to jump from a| arachute?” the inventor wanted to| now. “Five hundred feet.” “Why?" “Because a parachute is slow to open.” Mr. Edison suggested one should be | made to open instantaneously.
