Chas F Walsh an aviator of international repute spoke in La Grande predicting that flying will change mental and spiritual life as well as physical form. He said aviation reshapes muscles and thought, citing his own two year change from mechanic to slender, strong flyer and noting elevated perceptions from high altitudes. He warned scientists focus too much on physical changes and urged attention to the mind and spirit in aviation. He contrasted current theories of heart enlargement and body hair with his belief in a new mental development for airmen.
