Goes From Texas City to San Antonio

Construction for Aeroplane
In Warfare.
New York.—“Lieut. Milling has be¬
come one of the foremost aviators of
the world,” said MaJ. Gen. William H.
Carter after reading the report of
the great Texas Clty-San Antonio and
return flight of Lieut. Thomas DeW.
Milling, United States army. Milling
broke all American records for a con¬
tinuous flight with a passenger and
proved that a country could be mapped
by an observer in an aeroplane, even
though the machine flew at an altitude
of more than 1,000 feet and at a speed
approximately a mile a minute.
In making his report to the war
department, Capt. A. S. Cowan, com¬
manding the first aero squad, now on
duty in Texas, of the troops mobilized
at the time of the outbreaks in Mexico,
called attention to two interesting
facts—that Milling and Snerman had
established a new American endurance
record for pilot and passenger, as well
as a new American distance record
for pilot and passenger and that they
came within 12 minutes of the world’s
record for endurance.
The distance between Texas City
and San Antonio is 224 miles, and
Milling covered the distance there and
back, with only a short stop at San
Antonio, at a speed of more than 55
miles an hour. The weather condi¬
tions were anything but good; yet
despite all this, Lieut. Sherman, who
is an engineer officer, was able to
may In most creditable fashion prac¬
tically the entire country between the
two Texas cities.
Brig.-Gen. Scriven, chief of the sig¬
nal corps, has just made public the
report of Lieut. Milling and Lieut
Sherman, In which for the first time
the story of the fight is given.
The report, in part, says:
“In going from Texas City to San
Antonio left the ground at 2:15 p. m.
March 28, 1913, In an east wind of 25
Gen. William H. Carter.
miles an hour. After circling the field
for five minutes and attaining an alti¬
tude of 900 feet, started for San An¬
tonio. It was originally intended to
make the flight by compass, verifying
the course by prominent points. How¬
ever, the air was extremely rough and
so hazy that objects over two miles
away could not be distinguished. Ac¬
cordingly, after following a compass
course west until the Santa Fe rail¬
road was reached, at a point of five
miles east of Algao, It was determined
to follow this. The route followed
passed through Algao, Areola, Rich¬
mond, Eagle Lake, Columbus, Flatonia
and Lulling to Fort Sam Houston. We
arrived over Fort Sam Houston at 5:35
p. m. and continued circling the field
until 6:37, when we landed. The to¬
tal distance over the route followed
is 224 miles, making an average ve¬
locity of 68.9 miles an hour. The total
time in air was four hours and 22 min
utes.
“Minor repairs were made March
29, 1913, and it was intended to start
back March 30, when weather condi¬
tions were unusually good, but the
preliminary trial flight demonstrated
the weakness of one skid and the re¬
turn was postponed until March 31.
The start was made on this date at
1:29 p. m. in a south-southeast wind
of 20 miles an hour, which afterward
shifted into south. The route follow
ed was the same as in going over and
the landing was made at Texas City at
6:17 p. m. The total tome in air was
three hours and 57 minutes; the av¬
erage velocity, 56 miles per hour.
"The return trip demonstrated anew
the necessity for having excess power.
Our specifications seem severe and
would insure sufficient power under
ideal weather conditions, but with a
heavily laden machine and rough
weatbeiy-the conditions we might
normally find in war—the present ex¬
cess of power is sufficient Though
constantly endeavoring to climb, so
much power was used In fighting gusts
