"The Airplane Boys among the Clouds; Or, Young Aviators in a Wreck" by John Luther Langworthy is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers on young aviators, particularly Frank and Andy Bird, who are excited about their new biplane and the adventures that await them. As they fly and explore their surroundings, they encounter both potential rivals and mysterious figures that suggest more dangers are on the horizon. The beginning of the book introduces characters Larry and Elephant, who observe the Bird boys flying their new biplane over Lake Sunrise. Their excitement escalates when they witness Frank and Andy perform aerial maneuvers, and when a nearby man named Mr. Marsh shows interest in the aviators and their craft. The narrative reveals that the Bird boys have a history of overcoming challenges and competitors, including their rival Percy Carberry. Tension builds when the young aviators hear a bullet whizzing past them while flying, hinting at an unknown assailant whose identity remains a mystery, setting the stage for further adventures and conflicts.
