31 May, 1917.

The life at La Bellevue aerodrome continues. The new arrival at RFC 48 is Sergeant Dick Grayson. A young tightrope walker willing to test his mettle in the unfriendly skies. Together with his mentor The Man-Bat and his lady friend The Pussywoman, they’ve been running the circus in Durham for a number of years now. The Man-Bat was so called due to a peculiar membrane growing from his armpits. The Pussywoman’s characteristic facial hair features were the reason for her sobriquet. This, and the uncanny ability to attract other weirdos, such as The Japer, The Spheniscus-man or The Quizzler. These, in turn, would introduce such characters as The Stay-frosty-man, a local brewery spokesman who had one too many. He would oversee the circus concessions. And the Ivy-league-girl, an upper crust brat, that will do anything to defy her upbringing. Anything. Even joining a circus.
Due to his experience with working at heights he excelled at his aircraft-handling studies. He would have been a perfect candidate for scouts, but his lack of independent thinking and dependency on a teammate had only warranted a posting to a two-seater squadron. He was paired with Captain Oliver Glasgow as his gunner/observer. An easy going fellow, who already garnered a nickname of “Glasgow in Bristol”. And so, their adventure together begins...

The connecting rod out of my brain, my brain,
From out of my arse take the camshaft,
And assemble the engine again."
