Tom Swift and His Air Scout, or, Uncle Sam's Mastery of the Sky Quotes

“The propellers of Damon's Whizzer will be of the pusher type, and will revolve in dense, compressed air, almost like water, and that will do away with high speed motors, with all their complications, and make traveling in the clouds as simple as taking out a little one-cylinder motor boat. How's that, Tom Swift? How's that for an idea?”
― Victor Appleton, Tom Swift and His Air Scout, or, Uncle Sam's Mastery of the Sky
