Promise of co-operation on the part of the Brazilian government, however, partially dispelled doubts and fears for his safety if he should fly unwarned into a tropical storm. Meanwhile efforts were being made | to obtain a barograph, without which the flight would not be officially rec- ognized. An Army barograph cannot be made available for this kind of voy age, it was believed, and efforts to ob- | tain one from other quarters were started. Relief from the monotony and grind | of the long flight was sought in the| installation of double controls, allow- | made statement bhar . a para- © reports | | trols from either side of the airplane.
