America Wins Nine MoreWorld’s Records At McCook Field, Dayton, Ohio, a little after nine-thirty, Monday morning, April 16th, Licutenants John A. Macready and Oakley Kelly in a Fokker Monoplane, having a Liberty enging Delco-equipped, started a series of rec- ord-breaking performances, such as have never been known before in the history of aeronautics. For 36 long, continuous hours, night and day, these men piloted their ship in a sustained flight of over 2500 miles, shattering six world's records for endurance, distance and speed —a terrific test of the durability of this plane’s mechanical and electrical equipment. At the same time, Lieutenant Harold R. Harris, in a stock DeHaviland plane, broke the world's speed record for 1500 and 2000 kilometers, averaging aspeed of 49 miles per hour faster than the previous French record. To complete the day’s triumphs, Lieutenant Rutledge Irvine broke the world’s altitude record for planes carrying a dead weight, flying over 11,000 feet with a weight of over 2400 pounds. These nine great victories still further establish the position of unquestioned leadership held by the United States in airplane accomplishments. These wonderful records bring splendid credit to America, to the Liberty engines which operated these planes and to the designers, mechanics and flyers, who had to do with these remarkable performances. And, once more, world record breaking events have proved that Delco is the world’s foremost electrical automotive equipment—{or all of these planes were equipped with Delco Ignition.
