N N\ “power team” — has set a new world’s record of 200.2 hours for a non-stop flight of aircraft and. crew without refueling. The Navy’s fleet of NAN type non-rigid airships, largest in the world, designed for long duration defense patrol, are each powered by two 800 h.p. Wright Cyclone 7 engines, housed within the car.
