WHEN AEROPLANE FLIGHT first began to attract the attention of the public, and both big and little scientists in all parts of the world stopped trying to prove by their figures that such a thing was impossible, the general opinion expressed by the leading men of the aerial movement, and even by the builders of flying machines themselves, was that the aeroplane was destined to be a machine to just skim along the ground, and that it could never be expected to make any high flights. In fact it was all figured out that high flying was to be left entirely to the lighter-than-air craft.
