For the sustained high speed necessary to record-making distance flights, air-cooled motors have invariably been employed. For, with air-cooling there is nothing to fill, drain, mix, tighten, lubricate, replace or repair—no water to boil, freeze or leak. The new Franklin Airman is the first automobile to achieve Aviation’s new standard of speed—#Asgher average speed maintained for long periods of time, with minimum fatigue to driver ancf passengers. The Airman has been widely acclaimed ‘‘the most comfortable mile-a-minute car ever built.” Scientific light weight and spring suspension have produced un- equalled road-holding ability—in both the 7-passenger and 5-passenger models. A 24% larger air-cooled motor provides instant acceleration—challenges ail hills. Synchronized 4-wheel hydraulic brakes give sure, quick action from the lightest touch. In every detail of controls and appointments, the Airman is designed to increase the pleasure of motor car owner- ship—to minimize driving effort—to insure the ease and convenience of the passengers. The spirit of the Airman stands for a wholly new motoring experience in store for you—vivid and thrilling—when you have your first ride in the Air- man. Why not today ? HARRY W.
