Flagship Breaks Propeller
The NC-3 flagship of the eXpedi-
ton and ordinarily the leader in the
flying broke a propeller while her
engines were being warmed up in
| a surface cruise around the Balti-
more before the start. Installation
of the new propeller required more
than 40 minutes. Meanwhile the NC-1
was cruising along the water of the
| bay.
When repairs to his machine had been
completed Commander Towers, from
the deck of the Baltimore, signalled
the NC-1 to get under way. Lieutenant
Commander Bellinger at once headed
for the mouth of the harbor, his plane
taking the air opposite the Baltimore
and disappearing from view as it turned
eastward a mile or more from shore.
NC-1 returned to the harbor short
! ly after 10 o'clock and anchored along
side the tender Baltimore.
The NC-3, her new propeller working
perfectly, got away 23 minutes after
her sister plane. The aviators were all
in high spirits and confidnt of success,
not only in tn cruise to New Found
land, but also in the flight across the
Atlantic and thence over European
coastal waters. to Plymouth, England.

large numbers to watch the start

460 nautical miles, so miles less than
the nine-hour cruise from the planes

The aviators' plans call for a start
from Trepassey for Lisbon, Portu-
gal, via the Azores in about a week.
BY that time it was expected that the
NC-4, forced to descend at Chatham,
Mass, because of engine trouble.
