AIRPLANE SPEED OF 1,200
MILES AN HOUR PREDICTED
STOCKHOLM, Sept. 4.—Flights
between Europe and America in two
hours at an altitude of ten miles and
with 2.000 horsepawer motors, are
forecast by S. Lindquist, a well
known Swedish airplane constructor
in a statement published by a lead
ing Stockholm paper .
One of the greatest aims in avia
tion in the immediate future should
be to cut down the flying time be
tween continents, says Mr. Linde
quisi, and this probably can be done
by flying at extremely high altitudes
as the effect of gravitation decreases
with the increase in altitude and it
has been estimated, he says, that a
plane which has a speed of 100 miles
an hour near the surface of the
earth can attain a speed of 1,200
miles an hour at an altitude of about
ten miles.
At such a height the rarity of the
atmosphere would constitute a dis
advantage both to the ordinary
moloj and the ordinary propeller.
But this difficulty can be overcome,
dech res Mr. Lindequist, by using a
propeller with adjustible blades, so
that the pitch of the blades could
be altered with the density of the
air, rnd by using special compres
sion tor the motor which would com
pensate for the decrease in barome
tric pressure at high altitudes Such
a motor would probably have to de
velop about 2.000 horsepower. Mr.
Lindequist declares that the prob
lems of the adjustable propeller and
aerial compression motor can be
solved.
