Lt WCA Meade - Our Seaplane Adventure

OK. So this is a long shot...

Can anyone provide a copy, or a link to, a magazine article entitled "Our Seaplane Adventure"?

It may have been published anonymously or under a pseudonym, probably between 1918 and 1923. I said it was a long shot!

Subject is an adventure being marooned on an island in the Maldives in April-May 1917.

Do not confuse this with the various versions by his pilot Flight Sub-Lt Guy Duncan Smith, including an entertaining version by Rudyard Kipling - A Flight Of Fact - 1923.

This the observer's story...

Published under his name in The Wide World Magazine, September 1918.

I pulled tiff files of the pages, but they're huge. So I pulled jpegs, which are still pretty big.

See your PM for a link.
