Summary "The Airship Boys' Ocean Flyer; Or, New York to London in Twelve Hours" by H. L. Sayler is an adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The book follows the ingenious young aviators, known as the Airship Boys—Ned Napier, Alan Hope, and Bob Russell—as they embark on a thrilling mission to demonstrate the capabilities of their latest creation, the Ocean Flyer, which has the potential to cross the Atlantic Ocean in record time. The story promises elements of excitement related to aviation innovations, teamwork, and daring escapades. At the start of the novel, the busy and competitive environment of a newspaper office is depicted, setting the scene for an exciting revelation about the latest advancements in aerial navigation. A reporter named Stewart learns about a new airship capable of extraordinary speeds, prompting heightened interest from the newspaper's staff, particularly night city editor Mr. Latimer. The narrative quickly progresses to the Airship Boys being approached by the managing editor with an intriguing proposition: to ferry journalists and photographs across the Atlantic in time for the coronation of King George V. This unexpected alliance hints at both the challenges and the thrill of high-stakes aviation in an era of rapid technological advancement. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
