When one be comés confused in conversation. h is referred o as being in a spin” “Ground flying” denotes coi versation concerning flying. Whe « speaker at a banquet orates at un due length, an air service hint te him to “land” is to place twc matches to form a T’ representatiy« of a plane’s outlines. “Cefling” is the highest point a1 alrcraft can read, depending on its horsepower and the air density “Washed out” is the army aviator's designation for getting killed, and “cracked up' meansa wrecked plane in which the pilot might net be dead, “Archie” is an endearing term that army fliers have for all anti-airoraft artillery, Any particular design of aircrafl is known as a ‘“job,"” the propeller being termed the® “prop.” “Giv 'er the gun” is the air equivalent of stepping on the gas to speed up. To “get down” is to land, but when the fiier tries to run paralle] te the ground heyond the conventional | tanding height and falls a few feet { in his intentional descent to mothe: { earth, he is said “to pancake. | A "hisso” is a training plane * | equipped with a Hispano-Suiza mo- [ tor. A “Jenny” fs a training plane | of the JN type. To “take off” ia to | get into the air, and a “hop” is # & hort flight. A “barrel roll’ s a complete revolution lengthwise, “To | zoom' means to climb very sharply { for a short period. A “sausage” is { a small dirigible or balloon. To come to the more sclentific terms, an “airplane” is sustained by | dynamic action, whereas an “aero- | stat” is an airship or balloon filled ith gas lighter than air. The rmy air service has not developed | the “ornithopter” which, bird-like, | faps its wings to ald the machine’s flight, considering this typs not suited to service needs, Tt is Inter- sted in the development of the ‘helicopter?’ capable of rising ver- jcally by a thrust of its propeller. A “glider,” which I8 an airplane without a motor, such as . the Wright brothers’ first learned to fly | in, is now being used by the army as a target. {Road Conditions 3 ‘ In Connecticut, Portland, Glastonbury—Portian? road is under construction, but i open to traffic 4 East Hampton, Portland—Fa | Hampton road is umder constructio Open to traffic.
