Transportation

In Chapter 4, Phil and Nate are to take a long flight in Sopwith Platypus. What can you find out about this plane?

Phil also mentions that this plane was very useful in the "Great War". Which war is she talking about? When did it take place? Who were the countries involved in this war?

    Well, in the first chapter, it says that the lawyer and Miss Lumpton were having their meeting in September of 1928, so that can't possibly be right. You may want to conduct some research, Jay and try that again.

    No, not all of the countries, but a lot of major ones. According to Wikipedia, "the great powers of Europe, including the German Empire, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the Ottoman Empire, the Russian Empire, the British Empire, France, and Italy, played a major role."
