Commander Richard E. Byrd. safe
II back at his base, Little America,
from flight to the south pole. today
holds the unique distinction OF being
the only man to fly over both poles
|of the earth.
BY bending to the use Of his cour-
age and skill the tools supplied by
modern mechanical and scientific
progress. he achieved within three
and one-half years what no other
polar explorer has accomplished In q
life time. visits to the top and bottom
Of the globe. In flying to the south
pole he did in less than a day what
1t had previously taken more than
three months to accomplish.
The antarctic flight was beset with
difficulties far greater than those en-
countercd in Byrds trip to the north
pole which was made May 8. 1926.
The distance Of each flight was about
the same. I 600 miles.
On the flight to the north pole and
back. made In Is hours, 80 minutes,
there was no stop.
barren Of Any Life
Commander Byrd navigated his
plane to and from the south pole
over 4 jagged mountain chain with
sentinel-like peaks that rise any
where from 10000 to 5000 feet. The
antarctic Is mostly barren Of plant
life and without human inhabitants
and even animals. due to Its severe
climate. even In summer which Is at
hand there now There are no tn
habitants. In the arctic there are
Eskimos and summer vegetation.
Byrd flew from Spitzbergcn to the
north cole over floating ice fields
rising only q few feet above sea level.
With here and there open leads {.
water. From the edge Of the SOUTH
ern ice barrier he flew 400 miles 0ser
an accumulation Of Ice rising $50 feet
or more above the sea and solid as
land and then scared over mountains
to the polar plateau and back again.
Byrd'S flight to the south pole Is q
striking demonstration Of the con-
quest OF modern methods Of travel
and communication Of distance and
other physical obstacles encountered
In polar exploration when compared
With similar featS accomplished by
older methods.
Commander Byrd flew from his
base on the Bay Of Whales to the
pole and back In less than q day.
