It was the first time a plane ever landed in that town. Lots of people came out to see it, especially when he got ready to take off. It was a real hot summer day, so I guess there was not a lot of lift; and you guessed it, Jim. He mis-judged the tree height at the fence line, and failed to become the first plane to take off in Montgomery. He didn't crash, but they had to take off the wings and tow the plane out of town to a much bigger field.
