Description
(Original Caption) Latest in Airplane Launching Device. The USS Maryland, anchored in the North River, New York, staged a demonstration of its new catapult airplane launching device. This catapult propels the plane from the deck of the ship, providing the needed momentum for the aviator to "take off" without a long start and the possibility of dropping to the water before the plane begins to "grip" the air. The airplane set on the catapult and ready to start a flight.
