The story revolves around the thrilling world of early aviation, following the skilled aviator Allen Dale as he faces various challenges, including treacherous weather conditions and the intrigue of hidden treasures. The narrative suggests a blend of technical detail about flight and an engaging treasure hunt that pulls in the reader's interest. At the start of the book, readers are introduced to Allen Dale, a renowned aviator, who is conducting a test flight under adverse weather conditions. As he pilots his aircraft against strong gusts of wind, observers are both anxious and fascinated by his skill. The tension builds as Dale's plane struggles against the elements, leading to a near crash that he expertly manages to avoid by aiming for an unsuspecting hangar roof rather than the ground. This daring escape sets the tone for the unfolding adventure and hints at a larger story involving hidden treasures that play a significant role in the plot, as revealed in conversations about a secret involving a pirate ancestor and a quest for fortune.
