BRITISH FLYER SEEKS ALTITUDE RECORD Bulman Sets Goal at 50,000 Feet in Effort to Beat Mark of French Airman. Correspondence of The Star and New York World. LONDON, October 16.—Plans are being made, it is learned, for a British attempt 1o beat the world's altitude record, which is at present 42,000 feet, held by France. Fifty thousand feet is the height almed at by Flight Lieut. W. S. Bulman of the Roval Air Force, who will make the attempt. Rritish aviation authorities have not hothered greatly about altitude rec- ords, holding that guch records are of little value, but this is a view which is opposed by the-aircraft industry. Rulman, who is called the “Blondin of the Air, conducted many dar- ing aeri#@ experiments, and the pre ent attempt is the outcome of sati factory tests with a supercharged en- gine at the Royal Air Force expe mental station at Martlesham Heath. | The apparatus in use is being kept | rigidly secret. as it is clalmed to be far in advance of that used in other countries, but it {8 known that Bul- man’s engine was an ordinary jce” type Napier-Lion, though it is 1hat the priciple could be app with certain modifications to any aero motor. Theoretical trials in the wogkshops have shown that a height of well over 50,000 feet could he reached if satisfac arrangements could be made for the pilot. The advantage of the use of supercharging apparatus. which has heen successfully used in racing car engines, is that a machine is not only rapidly to great heights, but ha ached them is able to | travel ju rarified air ax when only a few hun- aced feet from the ground i | NEW DEVICE BRINGS | SUN SPOTS TO VIEW Blemishes Now Watched Visually With Instrument Designated e Spectro-Helioscope. | " to The Star A.
