28 February 1914

On February 28, 1914, the weekly 'meeting' at Hendon Aerodrome in London was favored with fine weather and a large attendance. First Lord of Admiralty Winston Churchill, accompanied by Mrs. Churchill, witnessed the 2-1/2 hour flight of Lt. Spenser Grey who took his 90 HP Sopwith to 10,500 feet. Shortly after landing from this long flight he took up the First Lord for a flight.
