Training the Anti-Aircraft Gunner. Why not use free balloons shaped like airplanes
Caption: Trap-shooting is an excellent training for bird-hunters. Shooting with an anti-aircraft gun at an airplane is somewhat like shooting with a shotgun at flying duck or snipe-only more difficult. Anti-aircraft gunners need previous training even more than bird-hunters. Why not let them go through a course of modified trap-shooting, with balloons shaped like airplanes as targets, instead of clay pigeons? Another plan would be to let them shoot at balloons or kites, towed with great speed by powerful dirigibles
