New English “Fly” Bath

A Swimming Stunt Which is Fascinating as Well as Original


The extent to which the world is interested in the aeroplane finds reflection in the novel and exciting aero-swimming game now in vogue in England. It was first introduced by members of the Clafton [Clacton/Clifton?] Ladies Swimming club in London, and furnished so much enjoyment as a feature of a gala night of the club that the idea is rapidly spreading. The participants are provided with miniature aeroplanes or glides of various designs, and leap forward to the tank from a platform sailing several feet, lightly, before, dropping into the water.” (via, image via)
