Great regret is expressed in the army
over the death of Lieut.. J. D. Park,
killed in an army b.plane at San Diego
last week. Lieut.. Park was the young

service. He entered the Military Acad-

is very small machine and makes some
thing over seventy miles an hour. - With
its high speed and small surface it is
not a safe machine for novice In ayia-
ton to handle. and orders have been is
sued that none except the most expert
of the army aviators are to be allowed
to fly it.
Records Of Aviators.
The War Department has just complied
a series of the latest aviation records
and some earlier records showing how the
art has advanced in a few years. In
1909 the altitude record was I,45O feet.
This was increased to 1850 feet in 191 l
and now stands at 10000 feet. The dirigi-
BILE record is little over 10000 feet. and
for military purposes it appears cannot
be made much higher. A recent contest
between French military dirigible and
two military aeroplanes resulted in the
aeroplanes beating the dirigible a
climb and getting a position over 1t, which
from military point of view was equiya-
lent to destroying it.
The worlds speed record in 1909 was
forty-eieht miles per hour This was
~ at ha
Chicago meet last fall and now stands at
1853 miles by the same aviator.
The duration record in 1909 was hours
and IL minutes and is now 13 hours and

The speed and passenger record is held
by Busson. who made ~ miles an hour
