The opening of the book introduces readers to Dave Dashaway and the setting of his current life as an aviator. It begins with an encounter with a somewhat pretentious young man who wants to inspect Dave's airship, the "Gossamer". However, Dave is deeply focused on assisting a young girl named Amy Winston, who is in distress because her mother is ill. In a selfless act, Dave decides to pilot the "Gossamer" to help Amy reach her mother in time. As the introduction unfolds, it establishes Dave's character as brave, kind-hearted, and skilled, and sets the stage for further adventures and the development of his burgeoning proficiency in aviation.
