It seems that R F Wells had an interest in building and flying model aircraft before WW1.
I have two questions for Mike Gunnill based out of this gem. Do you know if Wells went to the USA before the war, as he seems to have developed several business interests over there.
Secondly, were the three relations of Baker witnesses to the flight itself, or just recall him telling them about it? I'm forming the opinion that the event happened elsewhere.
