ECONOMY FEATURE
OF NEW FORD SHIP
Smaller Motors 0utboard Is
Most important Change
in Plane.

Greater economy of operation will be
a feature of a new model Of the Ford
tri-motored passenger transport plane,
to be known as the TAT type, it was
announced last week by the Ford Mo-
tor Co.
The most important change from the
SAT type will be reversion to the ear
lier practice of smaller motors for the
outboard units. Two Wright J-6 mo-
tors of 300-horsepower each form the
outboard units with a 25-horSepoWer
Wasp In the nose.
In appearance. it Is said, the new
plane will be virtually the same as the
SAT type, production of which is to
be continued. The dimensions also will
be almost the same. The TAT will
have a wing-spread of 78 feet and a
length of so feet over all, with height
Of about 13 feet 6 inches.
The new motor arrangement, with a
total of 1,025 horsepower, it is claimed,
will give top speed of 1874 miles per
hour and cruising speed of 112 miles
per hour. The stalling speed is So
miles. A service ceiling of $4,000 feet
and an absolute ceiling Of 15,600 feet
are claimed.
The useful load, it is announced, will
be $3.50 pounds, bringing the total
weight fully loaded to 1910 pounds.
In addition to the TAT and SAT,
the company will continue production
of the 4-AT, powered by three Wright
J-6 engines, and the 6-AT, equipped
with pontoons for use as seaplane.

UNIQUE PLANE RACE
GETS SHIPS NOWHERE
Two Army Pilots Make 1870 Miles
an Hour, but Stand Still
in Gale.

A unique race between two Army
Boeng P-l2 pursuit planes, in which
the fast little ships few at a speed of
approximately 100 miles an hour but re-
mained in the same spot for more than
nalI hour, has been reported to the
War Department. It is said to be the
nrst time two men have raced so fast
without going anywhere.
Inc stationary racers were Lieut.. I,
A. Woooring and Lieut. w. r. Casey of
the 95th Pursuit Squadron, Rockwell
Fielo' Callf., who went up for a two
plane formation flight at $4,000 feet al
tltude. Both planes were equipped with
supercharges and oxygen tanks for fly-
ing at that great altitude, which is
above the range of any unsupercharged
military plane.
The two pilots were to meet at the
top altitude and fly formation to test
out the maneuverability and speed of
their ships in the thin upper air. Upon
gaining altitude, however, Lieut.. Wood
ring found himself over Tiajuana, Mex
leo, and when he headed for Rockwell
Field at the prescribed altitude, he
found that he was bucking a 130-mile
per-hour head wind which held him
stationary.
Over Rockwell Field Lieut.. Casey was
having the same experience, being
forced to maintain a speed of 130 miles
per hour to avoid being swept away
backward from above the field. Both
officers finally were compelled to de-
scend to lower attitudes before they
could get together for the formation.

SELFRIDGE RESERVE
PILOTS FLY SAFELY
Only One Minor Accident Reported
at Field in Many
Months.

The percentage of accidents among
Air Corps Reserve officers who do their
flying at Selfridge Field, Mount Glenn
ems, Mich, is remarkable chiefly in
that there is no percentage at all, it is
stated in a report in the Air Corps
news letter.
There has been but one accident
there in many months, and that was Of
minor character. This is regarded as
remarkable, as the Reserve pilots keep
their hands in by flying only during
intermittent visits to the field and oc-
casional details to 14-day active duty
The first accident involving Reserve
officer on inactive status in many
months occurred recently when Lieut..
Daniel B. Burns was forced down about
10 miles from the field by motor failure.
HE evidently tried TO glide a little
farther than the ship would go and
took part of the fence around the Gra-
tiot Airport along with him." the news
letter stated. Although he escaped
with nothing more than a few moments
of unrest the plane had to be hauled
back to Selfridge and was later shipped
to Fairfield Air Depot for overhaul"

BUSTED STICKS ORDER
FORMED BY AIR LEGION
Organization Now Has But Three
Members and Is Seeking
No More.

An "Order Of the Busted Sticks" was
created this week by the District of
Columbia Air Legion to perpetuate the
fame of student pilot members who
crack up their planes. Three charter
members are enrolled, and have de-
clared that the order will be unique, in
that there will be no campaign for new
members. The charter members, in
fact, hope that the order will be so
exclusive that they will have no fra
ternal associates.
The three busted sticks" in the or
der OF their ascent-or rather descent
to fame are c. L. Barnes, Alva Sole,
president of the legion, and Eli Aman-
uel, musician in local motion picture
orchestra. Amanuel went through his
crack-up this week, and the order was
formed Immediately.
Barnes, the first legion student to
crash washed out the landing gear and
wings of his ship on his first solo flight
without injury to himself. He has had
no great difficulties since. Sole was
waited into the order when he was
struck by another airplane on the
ground just as he was landing. Aman-
uel ground-looped his way to member
ship this week, when a landing gear
strut, imperfectly welded and made
brittle by the intense cold, snapped as
he was landing. The fact that he was
making what normally would have been
very good landing saved him from
what might have been a bad crack-up.

MAINE, MICHIGAN
MAPPED BY ARMY
Flyers Chart Rugged Land
in Unsettled Areas of
Two States.

The feat of the Navy's Alaskan map
ping expedition in making a photo
graphic map of thousands of square
miles of rugged and inaccessible coun-
try in the southeastern portion of the
Territory has been matched by the
Army Air Corps, which during the past
Summer has completed the aerial map
ping of large unsettled areas in Maine
and Michigan.
The Michigan mapping expedition
was at work four months. it has jusS
been announced, the greater part of
the time being spent waiting for abso-
lutely clear days. The portion mapped
included 1900 square miles of the west
coast of the southern peninsula of
Michigan, comprising the counties of
Muskegon, Oceana, Mason and part OF
Lake.
The propect was undertaken at the
request Of the United States Geological
Survey, and total of $500 photographs
were taken. The work was accomplish
ed in 20 working days, totaling 78 flying
hours. During the four months there
were only % clear days, and on several
days clouds rolled in after the mapping
plane had reached the required alti-
tude, necesSitating abandonment of
work for the day.
The expedition consisted of Lieut..
Willis r. Taylor, commanding the 21st
Photo Section, Scott Field, ILL.,; Pvt. .Clar-
ence Oster, photographer, and Corpl.
Joseph c. Mccullough, mechanic. Pvt.
Oster later was replaced by Master
Sergt. Nico G. Loupos. The work be-
gan July /, when Lieut.. Taylor took off
with Looming amphibian and eStab-
lished the first base at Muskegon. The
Looming later was replaced by a Doug
lass O2-H observation plane. The aver
age altitude flown for mapping was
IL 500 feet.
Another Army Air Corps mapping ex-
pedition was completed with the recent
return to New York from Maine of
Lieut.. Guy H. Hale and four sergeants
The party took off in an amphibian
plane last June to conduct an aerial
survey in the Aroostook region for the
purpose OF correcting existing maps of
this wild and difficult section. The un-
dertaking was financed in part by the
State of Maine.

AERONAUTIC STUDY
DECLARED SUCCESS
University of Minnesota Reports
to Navy Department 140 Class
men Enrolled for Training.

Unusual success has attended the in
auguration Of the new course in aero
nautics at the University of Minnesota,
according to reports received by the
Navy Department. Approximately 14O
seniors and underclassmen have regis
tered for the course, which follows Navy
requirements for flight and commission
training.
A special course in naval aviation has
been installed in the extension division
of the university to take care OF appli-
cants who have graduated from the
university and now are employed in oc-
cupationS which prevent their registra-
tion for the day school courses
A program of student selection has
been established to make tentative Sc
lections from freshmen and sophomores
for flight and commission training after
graduation. These men will be kept in
a civilian status under instruction by
naval personnel during the remaining
years of their university work.
Through such a program" it is
stated in the news letter of the Navy
Bureau of Aeronautics. "it is hoped
eventually to obtain student personnel
that is better grounded in naval mat
ters and aviation knowledge prior to
their departure for fight training"

CATERPILLAR CLUB
MEMBERSHIP GAINS
Roster of 1856 Flyers Shown
Today-Army Has the
Largest Delegation.

During the past is months the men,
bership of the mythical Caterpillar
Club, composed Of aviators who have
saved their lives in emergencies by re-
sorting to the parachute, has nearly
doubled, according to the club roster
which is being kept by Frank Harmel
of the office of the chief of Army Air
Corps.
The club reached the century mark"
on August 3, 1928, when Flying Cadet
William j. Croswell, Army Air Corps
made the one-hundredth successful
emergency jump and became Caterpillar
No. 100. The club roster compiled by
Mr.. Harmel today shows 1876 members.
The Air Corps roster, Mr.. Harmel
said, may not be correct, as there is no
official record kept of jumps by civilian
flyers. Military flyers, however, are re-
quired to make reports of such jumps
and every one has been recorded on
the club roster The only sources of in
formation on many jumps made by
civilians are newspapers and letters
from interested persons, Mr.. Harnel
said. Parachute manufacturers also
help to keep the records up to date.
In checking over his roster, Mr.. Har-
mel found this week that 95 emergency
parachute Jumps were made by Army
Air Corps personnel. 81 jumps by Navy
personnel, six by Marine Corps officers
and men. nine by, National Guardsmen
and SIS by civilian flyers.
The first entries in the Caterpillar
Club roster were made in 1919, when
two men joined. One followed in 1920.
In 1921 and 1928 there were no Cater
pillars created. There were two addi-
ttonS in 1922, making five members
during the first five years of the
Clubs" existence. In 1924 there were
10 more added and from that time on
the group has grown rapidly, as fol-
lows: 1925, 13 members; 1926, II; 1927,
80; 1928, 43, and 1929. up to Novem-
Der 16, 68.
The 195 jumps so far recorded re-
suited from 168 accidents. On one oc-
casion four occupants of a doomed
plane made successful jumps; on two
occasions three simultaneous jumps
were made and 20 times there were
double jumps
Col. Charles A. Lindbergh remains
Chief Caterpillar" having taken to his
parachute four times to save his life.
Two successful jumps each were made
by Maj James Rutledge, Capt. Frank
OD. Hunter, Lieut.. James T. Hutch
ison, the late Lieut.. Eugene H Barks-
dale, Sergt. Fred P. Miller and AL Will
son, civilian pilot.
