''Come Josephine In My Flying Machine'' is a popular song with music by Fred Fisher and lyrics by Alfred Bryan.〔("Come Josephine In My Flying Machine" by Fred Fisher and Alfred Bryan, (New York: Shapiro,1910) )〕 ==History== First published in 1910, the composition was originally recorded by Blanche Ring and was, for a time, her signature song.〔. Retrieved February 2, 2014.〕 A duet by Ada Jones and Billy Murray was recorded in November 1910 and released the following year.〔(Ada Jones and Billy Murray duet ) ''ucsb.edu.'' Retrieved February 2, 2014.〕 There have been many subsequent recordings of the pop standard. Written in the early days of aviation, it tells of a young man courting his gal by "flying machine" and expresses the technological optimism of the era: "Whoa, dear! Don't hit the moon! "No, dear . . . Not yet, but soon!"〔(''America's Songs II'' by Michael Lasser, (New York, NY: Routledge, 2014) p. 48. )〕 It allegedly was based upon Josephine Sarah Magner (April 22, 1883 – July 15, 1966), who was perhaps the first woman parachutist in America with her initial jump in 1905. She was married to early aviation pioneer Leslie Burt Haddock (April 10, 1878 – July 4, 1919), making hundreds of jumps and also assisting him in the building of the first U.S. Army dirigible Signal Corps Dirigible Number 1 designed by her uncle Thomas Scott Baldwin〔Barker, Jack. "Exeter Woman Wrote Aviation History Now 80, She Recalls First Parachute Jump." ''Portsmouth (NH) Herald'', Dec. 7, 1963, p. 10.〕
