Summary: "Motor Matt on the Wing; or, Flying for Fame and Fortune" by Stanley R. Matthews is a thrilling fictional adventure written in the early 20th century. The story follows the protagonist, Matt King—nicknamed Motor Matt—as he embarks on an exciting quest involving a flying machine that holds the promise of fame and fortune. The narrative revolves around the challenges and dangers he faces, including unscrupulous characters and the inherent risks of aviation at that time. The opening portion introduces readers to Matt as he visits the office of Amos Murgatroyd, who is in search of a skilled individual to operate a newly developed aëroplane. Despite the dangers associated with the aviation field and the recent death of its inventor, Matt expresses a keen interest in learning to pilot the machine for a government trial. After a tense exchange, he overhears Murgatroyd attempting to cheat the widow of the inventor, Mrs. Traquair, and resolves to aid her while also pursuing his own aspirations. The scene is set for an adventure filled with mechanical challenges, moral dilemmas, and the pursuit of justice, as Matt prepares to take to the skies. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
