Plymouth, June 2-The seaplane
NC-4, pride of the American navy
crossed Plymouth sound Saturday att
ernoon, circled the place whence the
Pilgrim Fathers sailed in their cookie
shell ship for the new world in 1870,
| and alighted in the Cattewater' hee
epoch-making transatlantic flight end
ing on May 81.
As she came into view through the
western haze, England gave her the
splendid welcome she deserved.
Despite adverse wind and weather
conditions, the NC-4 covered the last
leg without hitch to mar the exploit.
Safe and sound but thoroughly IA
tigued by the physical ordeal OF the
trip, as well as the mental strain
Commander Albert c. Read and his
crew slept peacefully Saturday night.
The rousing welcome of Plymouth
residents to the American airmen and
the cordial reception given to them
aboard the Rochester by Rear Admiral
Plunkett, the mayor of Plymouth,
British and American officials and the
crews of the other NC planes, reached
climax with the first actual landing
of the victorious crew at the spot from
which the Pilgrim Fathers set forth
for America.
There was wonderful interest in the
flight, although it was eclipsed by the
previous flights of this seaplane, for in
the opinion of American naval officers
and the British public generally the
NC-4 reached the peak of her great
adventure when she spanned the At
lantic at Lisbon.
The pride felt by Americans in the
extraordinary feat of the NC-4 found
echo in genuine admiration, expressed
by British naval men and airmen for
the crews skill and pluck and the we'll
worked-out plans of the American
navy to facilitate and safeguard the
flight.
Plymouth.-Discussing the NC-4s
flight, Lieut.. James l.. Breese, Jr., Of
California, the reserve pilot-engineer
of the NC-4, said: I'VE had all the
comforts of home on the old boat. We
had comfortable hunks in which we
took relays for sleeping. Hot water
from the radiator faucet near the
hunks helped to make shaving easy.
1--WE knew when we We're near a
destroyer, as Rodd (Ensign Charles
Rodd, Cleveland, Ohio, radio operator)
would tell us the radio was getting
stronger. Then in few minutes we
would feel distinct bump and knew
we were over one. 1t seems that the
heat or smoke from vessel has an
effect on the air seven or eight hun
dred feet up. and this caused the
bump"
London.-The crews Of the three
American naval seaplanes came to
London and were given typical re-
ception as their train stopped at Pad
dingtOn station. American sailors and
soldiers rushed for the car that con-
tanned Lieut.. Commander A. C. Read,
who brought the NC-4 safely across
the Atlantic, seized him and bore him
on their shoulders up and down the
platform, and then to an automobile
