THE AMERICAN AIRMAN. | HE aeroplane being an American {nven- tion, it was not without a certain justifiable | chagrin and impatience that most of us saw | Frenchmen and other foreigners running away with the records. Theoretically we indorsed all that the Wrights had to say against “stunts.” Practically we have as 0 people demanded them, in the sense that | more aviators have found it expedient to make chort cuts to profitable notoriety by supplying thrills than by the substantial and eclentifically etudied achievements of a Curtiss or an Atwood. Even Wilbur Wright flew the length of the city over the battleships of the nations assembled in the North River at the Hudson-Fulton celebration, and Atwood certainly shows no disposition to go out of his way to avoid scaring in startling proximity to the pinnacles of our skyscrapers. Now there is something to marvel at, and et the same time sub- stantial cause for patriotic pride, in the long-distance feat triamph- antly accomplished by Harry N. Atwood, whose cross-country biplane flight from St. Louis to New York, « total distance of 1,265 miles, eets & new world’s record. This world record Atwood now hes securely to his credit, whether or not he completes his programme es originally laid out, and con- tinues the flight to Boston. In fact, ft was his last Thureday morn- ing, when he paseed Rhinecliff, opposite Kingston, up the Hudson. At that point he had already flown 1,177 miles in eleven daye—thir- teen miles further than the European aviators in the recent Franco German circuit travelled in @ course that occupied them more than twice Atwood’s time. Atwood’s greatest French rivals up to date are Andre Beaumont (Lieut. Conneau) and Pierre Vedrines. Oonneau won Inet month the great “around Britain” race—from Brooklands, near London, to Edin- burgh, returning via Carlisle, Manchester, Bristol, Exeter and Brighton to the place of departure—a total distance of 1,010 miles, completed by the winner in four days’ time, with only 28 hours 28 minutes and 18 seconds actual flying. Vedrines (who finished second in this race) won the Paris to Madrid race, 788 miles, in 14 hours 54 minutes actual flying time. His average speed was 481-8 miles an hour. Conneau’s one-day record of 401 miles hes not yet been ‘ap- proached, but his average speed in his long-distance flights is only 45 miles an hour. Atwood, flying alone, with no competitors to push | —— him, has been averaging 46 tailes an hour this trip, Ce MONA LISA.
