page 49 - "near with the firebottle" changed to "near with the firebottle"
page 59 and two other pages - “gage” is used where we would today use"gauge" - left the word as is, it seems to be a slightly archaicspelling but is used consistently in the text
page 97 - "The pilot didn’t bale out" left as is, instead of changingto "bail out" - some references indicated that "bale out" is correctfor "using a parachute to escape a plane"
