This generator is rated at 600 KW at 2400 volts and is driven by a 12 cylin- der diesel engine similar to those ysed in modern railway locomotives.

His fastest pass—761.414 m. p. h.—was only 31 less than the speed of sound along the course, where the mercury read 98.5 de- grees. Sonie speed varies with tem- Perature and altitude. Verdin and the Skyray erased the 737.3 m. p. h. record set by British Cmdr. Mike Lithgow in a Vickers Supermarine Swift at Lib- ya only last Sept. 25. During the 20 minutes between takeoff and landing at El Centro Auxiliary Naval Air Station, the nine-ton Skyray, powered by a Westinghouse J40 turbojet engine, used approximately 3.500 pounds of the jet fuel, a gasoline-kerosene combination. While on the runs, Verdin turned on his afterburners, in effect an extra engine carried in the aft part of the piane for short bursts of speed. “There was a reai boot when I turned those afterburners on,” said the pilot. “Everything was wide open. I couldn’t tell exactly, but I believe I was flying between 100 and 200 feet (altitude) on each iss.” Douglas Aircraft Co. officials say the Skyray is capable of supersonic speeds at higher altitudes, Men have flown faster than 753.4 m. p. h., but not under the low- level, sustained flight regulations of the Federation Aeronautique In- ternationale. Verdin, a Miles City, Mont., na- tive, won the Navy Cross for valor in dive-bombing missions in F6F Helleat fighter planes during the second battle for Leyte Gulf in World War Il. He presently is sta-' |tigned at Patuxent River, Md., testing new Navy planes.
