Late Friday afternoon Lieut Milling remained aloft in the air as the first flight started. He rode high above the skirting, sailing through the air with no special aims, landing a few feet away. Winds hampered the flight, making it dangerous. Enthusiastic Geiger joined him on the second flight, which lasted about twenty minutes and proved more successful than the first, though earlier attempts were stopped by rain.
