It compared very favorably with a ride in a smooth-running con­ vertible, with the added advan­ tage of having no traffic conges­ tion problems io worry about. Below us we could see a steady stream of cars in both lanes/ while away to our left were vis­ ible the wakes of many small pleasure craft as they cruised along the calm lake waters, j People could be seen swimming,: distinguishable as minute black! dots bobbing about in the water. Passing over Goderich, we looked down to see a lake steam-; er entering harbor, while over by ' the airport could be . seen evi-1 dence of considerable activity as. light aircraft taxied out and took I off and landed again. ' b Approaching Kincardine, we! noticed that a certain amount of i fluffy white cumulus cloud was starting to build up, and we could see the scattered cloud shadows chasing across the sun­ lit land below. Far to the north along the Bruce Peninsula the sky appeared, to be darker and the visibility had reduced a little in haze. The lake water had be­ come a deep blue as we got away from the silt flow from the riv­ ers. The glassy surface which had been prevalent towards the south had given way to a slight swell, while here and there a while-cap marred the deep blue surface. The wind from the west was freshening.’ We notice that at our altitude, we had to cor­ rect our heading to allow for, drift. Over the. little sheltered resort of Port Elgin we could see many hundreds of people- on .the beaches and in the water, while the amount of small-craft putting into and out of the roomy port was considerable. We circled twice over the beaches looking down at the people relaxing in the sun and swimming, The ap­ proaches to Port Elgin when seen from the air present a very pic­ turesque sight, while the town it­self, with its harbor and beaches nestling in the bay and surround­ ed by trees offers a snug and at­ tractive spectacle. Ovei* Chief’s Point we could see away to the east, the large inlet of Owen Sound, while to the northeast were visible the run­ ways of Wiarton airport. The weather was. starting to deterio­ rate by this time. The sky was quite dark, and we found our­ selves passing through the odd, light rainshower. - ■ ' I , We decided that we would much prefer to resume our place in the sun; and turned our nose to the • south again and headed back towards Centralia. Flying at- a slightly lower altitude we follmyed the shoreline at a dis­ tance of about\a quarter of . a mile off-shore until we reached ‘a point. approximately three miles south .of .Bayfield.. At this point we opened the throttle and climbed back up-to .about 3,500 feet, at the same time turning southeastwards.-on to a heading to bring us over the airport...At this point4.we decided to call-the Centralia tower and request a radio homing and a controlled descent. t - "Centralia Tower; this is Air Force four-zero-two, ten north­ west at three thousand five hun­ dred, request .VHF Homing and controlled descent, over.” We were due for. a disappoint­ ment, Back from the tower came the reply. “Four-zero.-two, this is Centralia Tower. Unable to ap­ prove a VHF Homing and Des­ cent. We have a power failure at Centralia and are operating on our emergency frequency,' over.” Under these circumstances, there was little else that we could do except request landing instruc­ tions. These were given to us. . "Four-zero-two, Centralia Tow­ er.

We were now ready to start up the aircraft. A crewman turned over the propeller by hand for about six turns, and another plugged in the battery cart. A ^check on our engine control quadrant determined that the throttle was set to a position ap­proximately one half inch open, mixture control showirig in the ‘full rich’ position, while the pitch control was pulled right back to the .‘positive coarse pitch’ not­ able MEN'S AND BOYS' a i ............ ____„ __„ , out of the west as we. walked i from the office door in Number j 4 Hangar and out across the 1 ramp to where the aircraft was I parked awaiting us, The particu- jlar aircraft which had been as- | signed to us was a Harvard, [ Number 402. In It, we planned a i short cross country flight to the ’ north, to carry out some training I procedures. J The Centralia field was, very quiet, and on the ramp were parked only two aircraft. One11 jwe were walking^wl? selected ‘cold’^and on a routine trip to Trenton later in the afternoon. The reason for this unseemly quiet was the fact that this was a Sunday afternoon. Walking towards the aircraft with our parachutes slung over our shoulders, we discussed our intended plans for the afternoon. It was decided that we would get away from the station area, and ■ fly north towards Owen Sound • and Wiarton. En route, we I planned to climb to five or six | thousand feet and carry out some aerobatics, stalls and spins. We also thought that it would be in­ teresting to call Centralia Power from time to time and request some radio fixes to establish our position. Ip the tower there is some equipment which when used in conjunction with reports given over the radio by the''pilot of an aircraft -concerning his heading and radio compass reading on the nearest, known radio station, en­ ables an operator to establish the bearing of the aircraft from the station in degrees and also the exact geographical location of the aircraft. On a quiet afternoon, when the tower operator has some time on his hands, an. in­ teresting battle of wits can take place between^the pilot and him. It is always interesting for the pilot to see where he actually is in relation to where the operator fixes his position. In the ma­ jority of cases, the operator is able , tfi; pinpoint- the aircraft in its ’exact position. Having carried out a thorough pre.-flight inspection of our air­ craft, which .included the exami­ nation .of all the control surfaces, the undercarriage and tail wheel, the engine mounts and all hinged s.urfaces, .we strapped on our parachutes and cliipbed in. Once settled into our seats, we se­ cured the lap straps and shoul­ der'harness and .locked them. , Having made " ourselves com­ fortable, the internal control locks were removed from the controls and a check was made on the free moveipent of the con­ trol surfaces. The control column was moved laterally to check the movement of the ailerons, which are the moveable surfaces on the wings which control the rolling motion of an aircraft. Next, the column was moved fore and aft, to check the elevator movement. The elevators are the horizontal control surfaces on the tail sec­ tion which control the pitching motion, or the nose up and nose down motion of the aircraft. Finally, the rudder was checked by applying pressure to the foot pedals beneath the instrument panel. The sliding canopy which cov­ ers the cockpit was checked, as was the intercom set between the two cockpits. After this, a check was run on the undercarriage lever, with which the pilot se­ lects wheels up or wheels down by manual operation.

The hand fuel pump was Operated until the fuel pres­ sure gauge showed four pounds per square inch, then the engine was primed'with fuel. The mag­ neto switch was set to the ‘both’ position, inducatirig that the. two magnetos in the dual ignition system were rendered live. A high pitched hum which in­ creased in intensity indicated that the starter was. being ener­ gised. As the starter was pressed, the propeller turned over a few times and then the engine caught with a loud report and then settled down into a steady throb. Our radios switched on, and the engine instruments indicating normal operation, we waited while the chocks were pulled away and the battery cart was disconnected. The throttle was opened to a’ point where the pro­ peller was turning over at 1,000 rpm and the gyro compass and the artificial, horizon were un­ caged for free operation. Over the intercom, a check was made that harnesses were secure and locked, With everything sat­ isfactory, we were ready to taxi out for our run-up prior to take­ off. A call was put through to the Tower. "Centralia Tower, this is Air Force four-zero-two. Radio check, time check and taxi clear­ ance, over,” This transmission indicated to the tower that we would like to be advised as ’to how well they were receiving our voice transmissions, what was the exact time, and what runway we were to ttse for take-off. Back came the voice from the Tower. ‘‘Four-zero-two, this is Centralia Tower, radio checks, loud and clear, the time two- five, runway two-eight, wind two- seven-five at ten, over,” The in­ formation from the Tower ad­ vised us’ that they were receiving loud; clear transmissions from us. The requested time check showed the time'to be 25 minutes past the hour. The runway in use was the one whose magnetic heading was two eight zero de­ grees and thus most cjo'sely in line ’with the prevailing” Wind1 which was coming' from, two seven five degrees .at a speed of ten miles per hour. With this information in mind, the brakes were released, the throttle opened to draw sufficient poWer from the engine to start the aircraft moving'. We then taxied out to a position close to the runway in use, but clear of it in order to. carry out run-up. ' The run-up involves the check­ ing. of the magnetos at full power, which is determined by watching the settings on the manifold pres­ sure gauge and the tachometer. In addition, the carburettor air control is checked, as is the mix­ ture and. the pitch control. Prior to actual, take-off, a check list .is run through which determines that the aircraft is fully prepared •for flight. Hydraulics are checked, the trim tabs are set, mixture is selected, ‘full rich’, carburettor air ‘cold’ and propel­ler pitch is set in ‘fine pitch’. The flaps are selected in the up posi­ tion, magneto switches on and , the canopy opened for take-off. With all our checks completed, we were ready for tak-off. We transmitted to the tower, "Cen­ tralia' tower, four-zero-two, take­ off clearance, over.” Immediate­ ly the tower answered, ‘.‘Four- zero-two, Centralia tower, cleared for take-off, over.” We taxied onto runwa.v 28, lined up into wind and opened the throttle to thirty-two inches of manifold pressure. -With our pro­ peller turning over* at an indicat­ ed 2,200 rpm we swiftly gathered Speed down the runway. A gentle forward pressure on the control column and our tail lifted from the ground leaving only our main undercarriage still running along the asphalt. With the airspeed showing.be- teween 65 and 70 knots, a slight back pressure ori the stick lifted opr wheels clear and we were in the air. As we started to gain a little height, the undercarriage lever was pulled up and the green lights on the instrument panel winked out to be replaced shortly afterwards by two red lights which showed our wheels to be fully retracted. We throttled back until the manifold pressure gauge showed a power setting of 28 inches and pulled back on the pitch control until the tacho­ meter reading was 2,000 rpm. With these power settings we were able to climb away from the airport at a rate of 500 feet per minute with our airspeed in­ dicator showing a speed of 96 knots. A call to the tovyer to inform them of our intentions was then made. "Centralia Tower, four- zero-two, off at three nine, re­ quest right hand departure, clear tower frequency, over.” This transmission informed the tower that we were airborne at 39 miri- utes past, the hour, that we would like to be given permission to carry out a turn to the right in order to leave the circuit area by the Quickest, possible route. When we were cleared we car­ ried out our turn to the right and Climbed out to three thousand feet on a heading designed to bring us out over the lakeshore. With bur canopy open we flew north between Highway 21 and the lakeshore, enjoying the warmth of the sun.
