Fightin' Air Force #14

"The Crippled Eagle" follows an intercontinental bomber with a crippled engine that must complete its bombing run despite mechanical failure, with the crew working to keep the aircraft operational until they can reach safety. "The Old Birds of World War I" is a historical feature comparing the primitive fighter planes of World War I—which lacked landing brakes and required extraordinary piloting skill—to modern jet aircraft, noting how World War I aces performed remarkable aerial maneuvers with their undependable machines.
