 | | He begins flying at Belfast, Ireland, and solos December 31, 1909 at Hillsborough, County Down, in a Ferguson monoplane, at the early age of 25 (born November 4, 1884, County Down, Ulster). |
 | | He has his ups and downs in the flying project, for the newspapers of October 12, 1910, tell of a fall and a wreck. |
 | | He is not entirely downed, hovever, for the papers report the 1911 "mid-air maneuvers at Magilligan Sands" where Ferguson is visited by no less than the well-known British air engineer T. Clarke. |
