Back in the air again for the first recorded flight since travelling to Aulnoy on 25 November 1918. It was a mere 30 minute rigging test.
Log Book

Date: Dec 8th Machine Type: RE8 RE8: 2924 Observer: Scarterfield Time: 30 min Height: 3500 Course/Remarks: Rigging test. O.K.
Squadron Record Book
The information in Greg’s log book is sparse. So is that in the Squadron Record Book entry:

Type and Number: R.E.8.2924 Pilot and Observer: P. Lt Gregory. O. Lt Scarterfield Duty: Test flight Hour of Start: 1035 Hour of Return: 1105 Remarks: Rigging test. Satisfactory.
Rigging Test
Greg’s rigging test was in RE8 2924, with Lt Scarterfield. This was the first time that Greg had flown this aircraft. At a later date, it would be the last RE8 that he flew.
The flight was for 30 minutes. Short, maybe, but the longest flight he had taken since his 1 hr 45 min reconnaissance and message dropping outing on 10 November 1918, before the armistice. And as it turned out, no flight after this one would be longer than 15 minutes.
