Written in real-time aboard the vessel, the log features personal reflections and experiences, aiming to immerse readers in the journey rather than adhere to conventional storytelling. The author, E.M. Maitland, acknowledges the challenges of documenting such an experience but hopes to share the wonder of flight and exploration with his audience. Rudyard Kipling's letter expresses his anticipation and support for the endeavor.
