Summary "The Non-Stop Stowaway: The Story of a Long Distance Flight" by Clayton Knight is an adventure novel written in the late 1920s. The story revolves around young Kiwi and his father, who are preparing for an ambitious long-distance flight from New York to India. It highlights the thrills of aviation and the challenges they face as they undertake this journey, with Kiwi determined to prove himself despite initially being left behind. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to Kiwi and his father, who are living on a houseboat while final preparations for the flight are made. Kiwi is eager to learn about flying and is excited about the imminent test of their plane. However, he is initially kept out of the test flights. The situation escalates when Kiwi sneaks aboard the plane as a stowaway during the actual flight attempt, showcasing his determination to be part of the adventure. The opening chapters establish the dynamics between Kiwi and his father, introduce other key characters, and set the stage for the thrilling challenges they will face during their flight.
