Aviator Farnum T Fish in his Wright biplane. "Fish carried a passenger during the entire time he was in the air in the afternoon, saying: 'When I go up I like to have somebody to talk to.' Fish carries passengers as a matter of course and not as a special stunt. He is as matter of fact about it as if driving an automobile."
