Doolittle of the army affixed pon- toons to his land plane, entered the Schnelder international seaplane race and flew away with first place in the record time of 232 miles an hour. Then, on May 25, 1927, he performed the. unprecedented feat of turning an “outside"” loop, and chalk- ed up another mark for the army. ‘The honors are even now. Lieut. Willlams has not only duplicated Doolittle’s feat but created a stunt new to aerial acrobatics—an outside loop from an upside down position. In addition to shattering an army record, he used an army type land plane, At & height of 3,000 feet, the navy pllot's plane described a horizontal figure eight, 600 feet high, the first loop made on the Doolittle pattern, {and the second starting after a half |roll, made while flying upside down. | In a normal loop the aviator puts the nose of the machine down slight- ly to obtain maximum speed, then, pulling back on the control stick, rises slowly at first and then more rapidly as the top of the loop is made. Just after the top is reached, he shuts off his motor and lets the machine fall through the last half of ‘ths loop which looks like the letter “E" in script. The “outside” loop begins and is completed with the airman’s d on the outside instead of on the inside as in the conventional loop. The maneuver begins and ends with the pilot flying upside down. In a normal loop the pilot feel he is glued to his seat. In the “out- {side” a force seems to pull him out of the cockpit. “Everything scemed to rush to my head,” Lieutenant Williams said, “and for a moment I was blinded.” ‘The crises of both loops were {reached when they were half | through, he added, and there was a strong temptation to believe they had been completed. He admitted his flying senses deceived him, and he concluded he was through with the circle wlren in reality he had gone . |but halfway around.
