Cody boards Cody aircraft mark II whilst a Native American vacates his seat five more including two children are watching. The Native Americans are probably members of one of the Wild West stage shows that toured this country and Europe. For many years Cody and his family put on Wild West shows featuring trick shooting and horse riding and later on produced two Wild West melodramas that toured the country Successfully for many years. The money that this generated was how Cody partly financed his aeronautical work. The Indian braves were apparently not so brave; when Cody started up the engine of the aircraft they bolted scared by the noise of the powerful engine and ended diving into the nearby Basingstoke canal in their attempts to escape!

Note the mid wing balancing planes are protruding slightly over the wing tip. In other versions of this mark the balancing planes protrude much further. This reflects the constant tinkering that Cody carried out on his aircraft to obtain better performance and handling.}}
