Apans Astistont Sales Manager, Mahoney-Ryon Aircraft Corp One of the fortunate things about the finish of the ROBBINS- KELLY Endurance Flight in their Ryan Brougham “FORT WORTH” was that no blame could be laid at the door of any manufacturers’ products, In other words, the ship functioned perfectly throughout the entire. 172 hours, the motor and magnetos failed to miss a beat, even during the most severe electrical storm which was ever seen in the vicinity of Fort Worth, and the propeller failed only from a natural cause, for which the manufacturers need feel no chagrin There seemed to be a wrong impres- sion regarding this eracked propeller and after just having returned from Port Worth, and having made a com- plete inspection of the ship, the writer would like to put out a clean bill for all manufacturers concerned In greasing his rocker arms, Kelly climbed out f the left hand window of the ship und edged his way along the outriggers until he reached the be- sioning of his catwalk, which is made ‘of 34 imch steel tubing welded into a semi-circle below the engine and con- nected by longer rods to the fore and ait ends of the motor mount rhe first three days Kelly used no Reginald L.

Both pilots were back in the after cockpit uring refueling which was accom plished from a regular downspout hookup which extended out of the main tank and ran along the high-hand side Of the plane.to a point alongside of the after cockpit where it terminated in a funnel. A suction outlet on this side indicated to the refueling pilot dust when his tank was full The pilots started the trip without having had any experience in re-fuel ing, but had attempted two contacts with a hose. Approximately 37 feet of fone and one-half inch hose was used, which enabled the eefucling plane 10 discharge 110 gallons of gasoline in ight minutes. ‘On one occasion a two and one-quarter inch hose was used which discharged the above amount in three minutes, Dut such difficulty was experienced in hauling this back that it finally had to be cut off with a hacks saw, and the major part of it was. dropped. wwanidiscoveral Wat a woght of afl UA me One okcasion a gh load iy faunalKK, Hoffman, pilot of he refuting ship entangled in the stabilizer and caused the refueling plane to land while the endurance plane followed them dows until they saw the diffiewlty was not fuelings, only two were broken, and no large quantity of gasoline was lost. Among the interesting features of the flight were the replacement of a tachometer shaft in the air and the in- stallation of an air-driven gas pump, The plane originally had a wobble pump by which the gas was forced by hhand from the cabin tank to the wing tanks, On Wednesday, the fourth day of the flight, the fiers requested a wind-driven gas pump which was built ‘on the ground and sent up to them and installed in one of the outriggers. Kelly did all the plumbing incidental to the installation which functioned perfectly for the remainder of the flight and re~ lieved the fliers of much work. During some of the practice flights preparatory to the takeoif, Robbins and Kelly’ practiced going up to 8000 or 10,000 feet, cutting the motor. changing the spark plugs and adjusting the valves, but they had no need to do this during the main flight ‘The ship was completely recovered for the purpose of the flight but had the original streamlining and fairing: The door and window on the right hhand side and the rear door on the left hand side were covered over with fabric for protection during tie fight and the fliers also had a tarpaulin vyhich they could draw aver the open- vg in the fuselage during ‘he rain, Robbins was quite sick the first two ‘of the Might, but his condition “aleviated by some good old Texas ‘yand a few pills, Upon iuspect- AIR TRANSPORTATION ing the ship after the fight, the valve cages were found to be packed with grease and the valve clearances were ot off 0002 of an inch. ‘The spark plugs and magnetos were in good con- dition and the latter after a Tittle cleaning were good for another 172 hours. Re-fueling was done entizely by an: other Ryan piloted by K. K. Hoffman and H.'S. Jonés, The refueling was done from a hole in the bottom of the second Ryan owned by the Midland Oil Company of Tulsa, Oklahoma, ‘Upon completion of the flight, Sun day, Robbins remarked—“That old Ryan is good for two or three years yet.
