Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: A standard and most important part of an airman's equipment is his parachute. A development of flying in the first great war; it has been the means of saving the lives of pilots and crews that would otherwise have been lost when their planes were shot down in battles for air supremacy. Here Canadian airmen carefully learn the rudiments of controlling a 'chute on the ground.
