About this issue

This issue features a mix of World War aviation fiction and technical articles centered on aerial combat. The lead serial, "Bring 'Em Back Alive" by Wilfrid Tremellen (R.A.F. retired), describes the "Funk-Hole System"—an unorthodox method devised by Sergeant Westringham for disabling enemy aircraft without weaponry, allegedly rendering victims merely severely shaken rather than killed. The story establishes tension between the socially aristocratic but demoted N.C.O. pilot Westringham and the coarse officer Moldred, then shifts to Westringham's backstory at flight school where a "Follow-my-Leader" stunt competition led to his commission being denied despite superior flying ability. Additional pieces include "The Wasp Stings" by Captain John E. Doyle, "Gunman's Gold" by Edward Green (Canadian North adventure), and "Winged Warriors" by Captain J. E. Gurdon. Technical features cover modern British warplanes, an F.E.8 model section, and historical pieces on No. 74 Squadron R.F.C.
