~ HUGH ROBINSON,
Operator Of the Wonderful Hydro
AreopIane.

AroopIanc.
Somebody has to be the first to fly
across the Atlantic. For II goes with
out saying that II will be done sooner
or later. I think II will be done soon
rather than later. and l want to be
the man to blaze the way.
l believe that this thing Of flying
across the Atlantic Is now a mere
matter of arranging details. We have
aerophnes that will fly as long as
their fuel holds out and the Curtiss
hydro-aeroplane that can skim the
waves like q petrol. Flying across the
ocean, then, becomes merely mat
ter of building a machine that can
carry enough fuel to drive 1t across
or OF distributing series of supply
ships along the route to be covered.
Personally, / think that the cross
ocean fight will first be accomplished
by the latter expedient, that hydro
aeroplane, perhaps, somewhat more
powerful than those now In use, will
make the trip by flying from one to
another OF a number of nurse" ships.
Thus one man might make the trip
by resting between flights on board
the nurse ships or the machine could
be sent through without delay by re
lays Of aviators, each man covering
one stage.
Crossing thus by stages with
periods OF rest between will be a
much easier thing to accomplish than
to make the whole journey by flight
interrupted only for taking on fuel.
/ won't say that 1t will never be done
in one flight without pause, but for
the present the question of fuel
makes that out of the question. No
aeroplane Of the present type can car
ry enough fuel such as Is now used
to carry 1t three thousand miles. But
a "hydro-aeroplane of the present
type with a sufficiently strong and
reliable motor might do II by taking
fuel "at sea-" It would carry crew
OF, at least, two men, however, each
a pilot. SO that there could be rota-
ton In control to give the aviators
time to rest. For at best IL would
take 20 or "a hours to make the
trip.
There isn't as much danger attach
ed to an ocean flight as one would
naturally expect II the very worst
comes and you have to take to the
water, the hydro-aeroplane will bear
you up almost indefinitely. For IL
rides the waves like a duck. II il
emphatically a good sea boat" II
doesn't feel the shock of the waves
as an ordinary boat does but hobs
from crest to crest like cork. I
would trust the hydro-aeroplane to
outride a fairly heavy blow.
AS to the route to be chosen, that
would probably be decided by wealth
er conditions. OF course, the short
est passage would be from Nova
Scotia to Ireland, but to cover that
route would necessitate flying over
the iceberg-infested north Atlantic
and across the foggy stretch OF sea
east OF the Canadian seaboard. So
it's likely that the first crossing will
cover a longer but more temperate
Stream from New York or Boston to
England.
Anyhow, am convinced that the
transatlantic fight can be accom-
plished and am looking forward to
the time not far distant | hope, when
can have a try at It
