摘要

The two grandstands between pont Bezons and Pont Argenteuil were packed with spectators, on hand to see the Cancours de la Se-curite en Aeroplane (Airplane Safety Competition) being held on the banks of the Seine River. On that glorious sunny June 18, 1914, there were 57 specially equipped planes competing, with Lawrence Sperry listed last on the program. Entries featured such improvements to aircraft technology as magnetos, self-starters, carburetors and other innovations. Sperry's entry was the sole participant equipped with a gyroscopic stabilker apparatus, designed to improve stability and control. Sperry's device was mounted on a single-engine Curtiss C-2 biplane with a hydroplane fuselage. Flying with Sperry was his newly hired French mechanic and assistant, Emil Cachin. Considering that Sperry spoke almost no French and Cachin was equally ignorant of English, they seemed an unlikely team—but they had hit it off with each other from the start.
