FIRST AIR BATTLE
CRAFT IN MUSEUM
Wright Plane Made in 1917 Is
Now Property Of q. s.
Government.

WASHINGTON, April 10. (Spl)-The
u. s, National museum now has CIR
exhibition the first American built bat
tie plane constructed In this country
for the u. S. government. This plane
was constructed in Dayton, Ohio, by
the Dayton-W Wright Airplane company
and was completed on October 20, 1917.
It Is the first plane flown with a Lib
erty IL motor. The De H. 4 wal
adopted by the United States govern
ment in 1917 for use by the American
evolutionary forces as a day-bomber
and observation plane. 1t was first
Hown on the day of its completion at
the South field Of the Dayton Wright
company in Ohio. Since that time 1t
has been used for all military tests
aid experiments, ranging from motor
tests and different propellers to slight
changes in control surfaces, have been
made on this machine.
1t has been used in more than 1000
flights; has been in the air for more
han 1913 hours; and has travelled
more than 11t,000 miles. Twenty-eight
of the trips made by this machine were
for more han 100 miles each, includ-
ing trips from Dayton to Washington,
New York, Philadelphia, and return.
AS seen on exhibition In the museum,
1t Is as originally constructed, save
for a new coat Of military paint. With
the exception of a patch on the land
ing gear and a new section OF the SIDE
cowling, there have been no repairs
made to the ship.
The machine carries full military
equipment including ten No. 20 bombs,
camera, wireless telegraph and genera
tor, oxygen bottles and helmets, inter-
communicating telephone, heated CLOTH
ing and generator, and armament con-
sisting Of two Lewis and two Marlin
machine guns.
About eighteen hundred of these
planes were delivered to the army in
France and they were used extensive,
ly on the front for day bombing n
observation work.
This ship was criticized severely dur
ing the period of the war on account,
chiefly, Of a failure on the part OF the
public to understand its purpose. 1t
was designed to serve either as a
| fighter or a bomber When sent up
for combat work 1t carried a light load
and was able to attain greater speed
at 1900 feet than any other ship used
in the war. Its maneuvertng ability
when carrying a light load was con
\ sidered good. When sent upon a bomb
ing expedition It necessarily carried q
much heavier load and Its speed and
acrobatic ability suffered as q result,
The maximum speed Of h De II.
Is set at 122 miles per hour but a much
higher speed has been developed. Its
landing speed Is So miles an hour. It's
wing span is AZ feet, 81 inches; length
over all, 81 feet. ia inches; height, II

This applies more particularly to a med
