Navy To Try In May
The navy’s attempt to fly across the
j Atlantic will toe made on the first
clear day in the first week of May. ac
| cording to a statement issued yester
day by the Manufacturers’ Aircraft As
I sociation in which the history of the
1 navy’s prepartions are made public.
! So confidendent are the navy's experts
of the performances of the NCI fly
i ing boat, according to the statement,
that they are willing to undertake the
j trip without the assistance of mother
ships. It is understood that tho de
partment is insisting that mother
ships bo employed as a safeguard a
gainst I” i’ole disaster.
Other details of the proposed flight
as outlined toy the Manufacturers’ Air
craft Association, are as follows:
i "During trials at Rockaway last
week one of the flying boats of the N
C 1 type left the water with 26,000
pounds gross load, as against 22,000
believed at one time to bo the limit
of carrying capacity. This means that
' the craft can, and probably will, car
! ry sufficient gasoline to cross from
j Newfoundland to the Irish coast with
I out alighting for fuel.
“It is definitely known that none of
■ the flying boats to undertake the trip
1 will carry correspondents. The crews
i of five men to each boat will consist
uf pilots, mechanics, and aerographers,
' j One of the crew will also be a wireless
j operator. Very little food will be car
| ried. The necessity for this will be re
moved by mother ships. The naval
1 aviation service lias developed a spe
cial type of seagoing vessel adapted
to the care and repair of flying boats
It is this type which probab’y will be
spread across the Atlantic. Destroyers
; such as those dispatched a few days
; ago to Newfoundland with supplies foi
; tile flight will form links in tho safe
i line.
j "Unlike individual aspirants, the
' navy is placing no great dependence on
To Europe
favoring winds, it as true tnat tuo pre
vailing current is from the east to west
but with a flying boat of the N C 1
type, according to naval aviators, it is
unwise to count on more than occa
sional assistance from tho wind.
Available data show that for only eight
days in tho month in which tho flight
is expected to bo made is there a
strong wind hearing to the east up to
an altitude of 2,000 foot. This altitude,
it is stated, is probably the one at
which the navy flight will be averaged.
Naval airplanes iiave not boon devel
oped to fly at the high altitude of
land aircraft.
“The navy’s interest ill a flight a
Cross tho Atlantic dates back to 1914,
■when Glenn Curtiss brought Comman
dor John C. Porte to the United States
to pilot Hodman Wanamaker's flying
1 boat America across the ocean. This
attempt was not successful. The navy
kept abreast of developments in flying
j boats with a view to crossing tho At
'antic, but made no definite plans until
last year- ”
In relating the later history of the
navy’s project, the manufacturers’ air
craft association says in its statement:
“In October 1918, after our early ex
periences in the conflict had demon
ii-atod that aircraft would become a
major means of transportation, a naval
i officer, on his own initiative, prepared
a comprehensive review of all attempts
’’t long distance flying over the water.
This report was laid before Secretary
Canids and was approved. It stated
1 Positively the author’s belief that the
Atlantic flight could ho accomplished
the following year (1919) with the ma
terial already developed. The prepara
tion of this report coincides with tile
first successful flights of the N C L.
The review which set forth that the
flight would be justified even while we
were at war, and which gave detailed
"eoommondations. had the effect of
''ommittiug the United States to the
undertaking.
The experiments in testing the various
1 types of flying boats for adaptability
*o long distance flying range are set
forth in the statement. As a result of

THERE’S twice the v.ear in a pair of Goodrich
‘’Hi-Press” Boots that you’ll get from an ordinary

They’re made d'Ferenily—in ONE SOLID PIECE.
That makes the rubber stronger, tougher; eliminates
leaking and peeling.
They cost no more than ordinary boots. Lumbermen
