broke all American records for con
tinuous fight 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 900 feet and at speed
approximately a mile a minute.
In making his report to the war
department, Capt. A. S. Cowan, com
handing the first aero squad, now on
duty in Texas, of the troops modified
at the time of the outbreaks in Mexico,
called attention to two interesting
facts-that Milling and sherman 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 IL minutes Of the world
record for endurance.
The distance between Texas City
and San Antonio is 224 miles. and
Milling covered the distance there and
back, with only, short stop at San
Antonio, at a speed of more than 90
miles an hour. The weather condl-
tions were anything but good; yet
despite all this. Lieut.. Sherman, who
is an engineer officer, was able to

tically the entire country between the

make the fight 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 point of five
miles east of Algao, it was determined
to follow this. The route followed
passed through Algao. Arcola, Rich

arrived over Fort Sam Houston at 5:35

locity of $50 miles an hour. The total
time in air was four hours and % min

minor repairs were made March

three hours and 81 minutes; the av-
erage velocity, Sc 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
weather-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
and down trends that an altitude of
