Boston, Massachusetts – May 19, 1938 

     On the morning of May 19, 1938, a 23-year-old pilot and his passenger took off in a light monoplane aircraft from Boston Airport.  About twenty minutes later, (for reasons not stated in the newspaper article), the pilot was forced to make a landing in the mud flats near the airport.  When the aircraft hit the mud it nosed over.  Although the aircraft had suffered damage, neither occupant was injured.
