—e: THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, APRIL 7, 1935—PART TWO. N.A.A.LaunchesCampaign To Bring Records to U. S. Believes 60 or 70 of 109 Recognized Marks Should Be in Possession of American Flyers. By Joseph S. Edgerton. EARLY two-score world airplane records can be captured by the United States with airplanes which now are in o?eration in this country, it has been computed by officials of the National Aercnautic airplane performance records. As a result of its studies the Association on a basis of known association, sport aviation gov- erning body in this country, has launched a national campaign to lead the United States back to supremacy in the air and is calling upon American aviation in May and June to make a con- certed effort to gain all possible world flying records. There are today 109 recognized world airplane records. Other categories have been established , but no records in these cate- gories have been officially recognized. Of the 109 official records, the United States today holds only 29. If American aviation will make a real effort, N. A. A. officials are convinced, mid- Summer should find this country in possession of between 60 and 70 of the recognized world records. The holding of a majority of the recognized records by this country would tremendously enhance the pres- tige of American aviation and would | increase its dominance in the air-| plane export field, with resulting ben- | efit to every branch of the industry, the assocaition believes. i Planes Capable of Kecords. | Among the new American airplanes | which the N. A. A. has found capable | of world record performances if they | are put to the trial are the new Doug- | las and Boeing transports, now in standard use on a number of airlines; the Lockheed Electra transport, also in common use; the Beechcraft bi- | plane transport, the Northrop Gamma transport and the Vultee transport. The new Martin trans-Pacific plane now being completed at Baltimore for Pan-American Airways is expected to be capable of setting at least a half dozen world marks. Its predecessor, the Sikorsky S-42, established eight world records on a single flight. There is a new Fairchild amphibion which offers definite possibilities. The world landplane speed record, lost to France by a narrow margin, can be recaptured by the latest We- dell-Williams racer, in the opinion of N. A. A. officials. There are many landplane an amphibion records for speed with va- rying loads within the grasp of Amer- ican aviation if it only will reach for them. There are a number of femi- nine records open to American wom- an pilots with every hope of success. it is pointed out. They include light plane speed and altitude records, | landplane speed records with load, -and amphibion and seaplane records. | The N. A A, revitalized under the Jeadership of its new president. Sena- tor William G. McAdoo of California, is seeking to co-ordinate all aviation interests in this country in a cam- paign to regain the world’s major air records, promote air travel through- out the United States, 11 crease public interest in the whole field of aero- nautics and stimulate the building up of the civil industry and the military air defense. 5 Aids College Club. As a part of its campaign, the N. A. A. has taken an active part during the past week in co-operating with representatives of college flying clubs in the organization of a National In- tercollegiate Flying Club. The na- tional body was established during a two-day conference here and has for its goal the building up of private | flying, not only as a campus sport but as a medium of recreation and travel in later years. All the officers of the national club are college students. Grover Loening, pioneer airplane designer and builder and donor of the Loening Intercol- legiate Flying Trophy, has been elect- ed honorary president. To lend sta- bility to the national club, in view of its constantly fluctuating mem- bership due to annual graduations, the club created an Advisory Board composed of members serving three- year terms each. The Advisory Board is headed by William R. Enyart, secretary to the N. A. A. Contest Board, and includes as members Charles L. Morris, State commissioner of aviation for Con- necticut and former president of the Yale Aeronautical Society; John D. Ackerman, head of aeronautics, Uni- versity of Minnesota and Minnesota State aviation commissioner; William B. Harding, former Yale Fljng Club member and now a prominent New York sportsman pilot; Prof. Leslie A. ‘Walker, head of the aeronautical de- partment, University of Alabama, and Prof. Stanley Meikle of Purdue Uni: wversity. Beacon Field Expands. Establishment of a new flying school, construction of & new hangar and the acquisition of additional flying equip- ment have signaled the opening of an active season at Beacon Field, on the Washington-Richmond highway near Alexandria, Va. ‘The Beacova Flying School is being directed by Marvin C. Solomon and is operating a Great Lakes open cockpit trainer with a 95-horsepower Cirrus engine, a Stinson Junior cabin monoplane and will place in operation an autogiro as soon as hanger space can be provided for it. A new metal hangar 60 by 75 feet in size, with 18-foot clear headroom inside, is being constructed. This hangar is about twice the size of the existing hangar. Among the students of the school is Arthur Godfrey, radio announcer and program director, who is building up time for his transport p!lnt‘s license. Godfrey holds a private license and now has about 100 hours of flying time toward his transport license. A program of exhibition flying, in- cluding a parachute jump, is to be given at Beacon Field each favorable | Sunday afternoon during the coming season. The public is invited to wit- mess the show without charge. Bill Payne, at Washington Airport, has started night sightseeing flights for the season. Charter flying has been brisk during the week, with flights to Norfolk, New York and from ‘Wilmington, Del., to New York and back to Washington. Mount Vernon Airways, just south of Alexandria, Va., is completing overhauling, repairing and repainting buildings and equipment for the sea- son. Overhauling of a Taylor-Cub training plane is being completed and the ship is to be on the line today. Miss Harriett Sackett, one of the most active Washington feminine fiy- ers, has bought a Waco plane with an OX-5 engine and is keeping it at Mount Vernon. Cy Coppage and R. A. Rawson also have new planes there. Airline Conference Called. High altitude passenger flying, re- moval of ice from aircraft in flight, | use of the radio compass for air navi- gation and instrument landings, traffic control at air terminals, de- | velopment of new flying equipment and other flying problems will be dis- cussed at a conference of representa- tives of the Nation's scheduled air | transport lines with officials of the | Bureau of Air Commerce tomorrow at the Commerce Department. | The conference will open at 101 o'clock with an outline by Eugene l‘,\ \ | Coast Artillery Corps, | composing Vidal, director of air commerce, of purposes and procedure. “The bureau has no desire to dis- cuss either regulations or the present airways system at this conference,” Vidal has explained. “Instead, we are anxious to discuss with the opera- tors a number of problems yet to be solved in the interest of increased safety and performance.” Vidal pointed out that the bureau now has authority to engage in de- velopment work and has undertaken a program seeking improved types of airplanes suitable for operation by private owners. Similar develop- ment, in co-operation with the air- lines, of transport airplanes and en- gines might be possible were funds to | be made available, “Among other problems about which we should like to secure ex- | pressions of opinion as to possible aid from the Bureau of Air Commerce,” Vidal said, “are high altitude flying and further de-icing ekperiments, upon which one or more airlines have already been working. Also the in- creasing difficulties presented by traffic control at air terminals will be considered and desirable trends in future lighted and radio-equipped airways adaptable to the more modern type of flying will be discussed.” The bureau will report to the oper- ,ators on the progress its engineers have made in the use of the radio compass for navigation and instru- ment landings. Installation of radio landing facilities along the midcon- tinental route from New York to San Francisco also will be discussed. Maj. Crom to Speak. Development of sources of supply of war materials for airplane manu- facture will be discussed by Maj. W. H. Crom, Army Air Corps, in the regular lecture meeting of local Army | Air Reserve officers at 8 p.m. Tuesday in the Air Corps projection room, Munitions Building. Capt. W. V. An- drews, Air Corps, will be instructor in charge. At the same time the tactical em- ployment of anti-aircraft will be discussed by Lieut. E. B. Gray, in the Signal Corpseprojection room, Munitions Building. Last Monday Capt. Andrews dis- cussed the functions of the new general headquarters air force at a general meeting of Reserve officers. Capt. Andrews is the brother of Brig. Gen. Frank M. Andrews, command- ing the G. H. Q. air force. British Subsidize Gliding. Great Britain is subsidizing gliding through a grant of $25,000 a year for five years. In connection with the awarding of the grant the British Gliding Association has been com- pletely reorganized along lines agreed to by the British air ministry. At present, according to informa- | tion received here by the Soaring So- ciety of America, the glider clubs the British association own 100 gliding and soaring planes, which are used by approximately 900 members. Thousands of new enthu- siasts aresto have an opportunity to get air training which they cannot afford to get through membership in the many well organized British light | airplane clubs. Britain’s largest club, the London Gliding Club, is planning an immedi- ate expansion of its facilities at its gliding base. a 117-acre tract near the | town of Dunstable, in the heart of the Chiltern Hills. The British subsidy is based on a belief that the importance of air- | mindedness in the defensive armor f a nation has been proved beyond avil and that Great Britain is too | ulnerable to air attack to overlool ny means of building up a real | enthusiasm for flying among its peo- ple. Germany and Soviet Russia are particularly active in sponsoring glid- ing and soaring through govern- mental subsidies and the German gliding schools on the Wasserkuppe are acknowledged to be the most ad- artillery | at a meeting | CALVARY CLASS 10 BE HOSTESS Sunday School Group in Charge of Event at Y.W.C.A.
