NC-I LANES SAFELY
ON ISLAND OF AZORES

Washington, May 1.-THE Ameri-
can naval seaplane NC-4 under COM
mand of Lieut. Com. Albert f. Read,
has attained its first objective in the
transatlantic flight, having landed
safely at Horta, Island of Fayal
Azores, at $40 o'clock this morning
Washington time, after wingng her
way from Trepassey bay, n, F. in
Is hours and 10 minutes.
The NC-1, under command Of Lieut..
Commander NJ. L. Bellinger was close
behind the NC-4 hut the NC-3, flag
ship of Commander John II. Towers
was last reported at Sis a. H., Wash
inGton time. as off her course, some
where between station ship I and is,
about 100 miles from Horta.
Original plans were for the planes
to land at Ponta Delgada, and it may
be that the NC-1 and the NC-S will
continue on to that port, which is
about $50 miles east of Horta Fog
evidently caused Commander Read to
land at Horta and officials here as
sumed that after taking fuel from the
cruiser Colum bia, he would continue
to Ponta Delgada to spend the night
before taking flight for Lisbon. Por-
tugal, on the next leg of the overseas
voyage.
Commander Read reached Horta
several hours ahead of the schedule
time. officials having estimated that
twenty hours would be required for
the seaplanes to reach Ponta Delgada.
Had he continued to that port at his
average flight speed, he would have
covered the l 800 miles in little
more than IT hours.
Lame Duck of Party.
The NC4 was the lame duck" of
the division from the time it started
from Rockaway Beack, Long Island.
Three of the four liberty motors
which drove the ship to the Azores
were installed after it left Rockaway
because of trouble with the original
motors.
Commander Read was forced to
land at Chatham Light, Mass. on the
first leg of his flight to New Found
land He again was forced to make q
landing on the way from Halifax to
Trepassey to make reSairs, and at
Trepassev another new motor was put
in the plane before it started overseas.
Despite these handicaps the NC-4 led
the way TO the Azores practically all
night.
While the performance of the NC4
is considered the most spectacular
aviation achievement in the history
of heavier than air craft. Commander
Read has not equalled the American
navy record either for duration or dis
lance in seaplane flying. The great
ness of the feat, it was said, lies IN
the fact that it was entirely overseas,

Rear Admiral Jackson from the

Philip, Waters, Harding and Dent

and early tonight reported that the
weather, which during the day was
unfavorable, had improved and that
sea visibility had been extended to ten

Rear Admiral Jackson in another
cablegran said the last heard of the
lost NC-3 was report received at

she was slightly off course" As both
cablegrams required six hours for
transmission navy officials were in
clined to believe that the searching
destroyers had picked up both of the
lost planes.
