He reached Into the cockpit and cut the switch, but Woodward threw the ignition on again and managed to get the plane Into the air. Again Blanpied cut the switch, and again Woodward caught up the sputtering motor. Then as the rocking plane alternately lost and gained alti tude, Blanpied climbed Into the unoccupied front cockpit, ges turing and shouting. He reached back, struggled with Woodward, but the latter put the plane Into a dive. The ship crashed in a mead ow near the airport, strewing wreckage over an area of 150 yards. It did not burn.
