"My, that'll be great," exclaimed Jerry. "What's he coming this way for?"
"We're on the route. You know, he's in the contest for the $10,000 longest distance record," answered Hawke.
"Is he the guy that won the highest altitude prize," asked Dunk.
"That's the one. He's gone into teaching lately in New York City, and charges $500 for four hours."
"Whew! I'll take a minute and one-eighth," laughed Gray.
"Do you know him?" asked Fred.
"Yes, met him once in New York. Fine chap. Nerves like cast iron," answered Hawke.
"Gee, can't you write and ask him to stop here," asked Fly.
"He's going to make a stop at Albuquerque, according to the newspaper account, so I don't suppose he'll drop off here."
"Wouldn't it be sport to meet him with our plane!" exclaimed Fly.
