Number of successful landings
[edit]I believe that it was on his third landing that he died, not his second. Sources to support this include:
- "Ark Royal": Sailing into Glory by Mike Rossiter. ISBN: 0552153699
However, the following sources all state that his was his second:

- http://www.btinternet.com/~warship/Feature/history.htm
Clarification is required.

Location of trials
[edit]The article says Furious was in Scapa Flow during the landings, but http://www.testflyingmemorial.com/1915-18.htm says he took of from the Isle of Grain, Kent onto the ship in the English Channel.

Landings and Location
