Why, it was coming back! All the planes were returning from the air meet.

But the tests, faltered Clint. I—I don't understand. The pilot laughed.

He tossed the certificate to Clint and started his engine. In a daze Clint read the certificate.

I am going to give instruction at the air school for a few weeks.

The world flyer, repeated Clint, his eyes following the fascinating glint of wings. And I too shall fly!
