Lindberg fever hits the cartoon world.

 

Living, animate airplanes queue up, eager to head over the ocean:

 

Behold, it's an early version of Pegleg Pete! He's Putrid Pete here. So a missing limb replaced with a piece of wood is an indication of criminality and evildoing.

He's oiling up the plane. The plane likes it.

Oswald's plane is less impressive, but he's plucky as HELL so it's okay:

Once in the air, everyone flies very closely together

But Oswald cannot get off the ground, because ProtoPegleg has used chewing gum to fix his wheels to the earth.

So he has to use a dog, a board, and speech balloons.

 

Even though ProtoPeg changes the direction of the signage at 20,000 feet . . .

 

. . . Oswald, of course, wins.
