Whtn Flying Fiih.i Play.'
They're Juti Nervous
"I get so nervous I could
fly." is just about the actual
truth as it applies to the so-
called flying fish, and prob-1
ably the creature's jittery j
nerves and jumpy disposition
are the real reason why this i
fish launches itself up and '
into the air in long, sustain- i
ed glides. i
And it is necessary to be
come a little technical about
these animals and admit that
it has no real ability to fly,
but like the so-called flying
squirrel, only glides. The fish
possesses no flight muscles
such as are necessary in birds
or bat.
The flying fish's pectoral
fins are elaborated Into wing
ling extensions, the duplica
tion of which has been tried
' for man-made airplanes, but
so far unsuccessfully. Neither
can aeronautical engineers
even approximate the deli
cacy of balance, the perfect
streamlining of the body or
the flexibility which these !
gliding fish possess...
, The flying fish's distribu-;
tion of weight, that is so im-l
portant to all things that are I
to be airborne, is a marvel of j
perfection. The fish has sta
bilizing fins that are placed i
precisely right and capable I
of the very finest of adjust- j
ments to meet varying condi- (
nons oi wma direction or re
sistance. The so-called flight of this
fish sometimes reaches a con
siderable distance, often esti
mated to be as much as a
quarter of a mile, sometimes
at a height of 60 feet above
water. The speed attained by
the fish has been variously
estimated at from, 25 to 45
miles per hour. "
During the time the fish
is in the water, the "wings"
are folded back alongside the
body. But when an enemy
approaches, the fish acceler
ates its speed by means of
a fluked tail, which acts as
a powerful sculling oar, until
the takeoff velocity is attain-'
ed. Then the slender body
shoots up and out of the wave 1
crest, the wings are extended,
and the gliding flight is ac
complished. Usually the fish, once in the
air, will bank into the wind,
taking advantage of air cur
rents. At such times it can
be seen to adjust the "wings"
to the direction and speed
of the air through which it
is gliding. Frequently the lit
tle glider pilot becomes con
fused or runs out of "fuel,"
and the little airborne "ship"
lands on the deck of a boat
or plunges Into some obstruc
tion and is "wrecked."
There are several varieties
of "flying fish;" some are
barely six inches in overall
length, yet other kinds may
'' be all of two feet.
. One of the most popular
of the poems by Kipling,
VOn the Road to Mandalay,"
; which was later put to music
' and enjoyed by millions of
people, popularized the "fly
ing fish." Their playing so
. joyously along the romantic
"highway" of water led to
the idea that the fish "flew"
because of its sheer joy to be
alive. The truth, however, is
, something aside from happi
. ness. The flying fish takes to
the air only when frightened
, or to escape a hungry enemy.
, At such times this fish be
. comes so nervous it Literally
. does come awfully close to
flying.
