II. S. Aviator Sets
Speed Record
I ravels 243 Miles an Hour in
Curtiss Plane at
Dayton, O.
By The Amnoeiatcd rrpM.
Dayton, O., .March 30.—Lieut. Lcs-:
ter .T. Maitland, U. S. army aviator,
winner of second place in the Pulitzer
cup races at Detroit last fall, today1
was declared holder of the world’s
airplane speed accord, accomplished
yesterday w lien he piloted a Curtiss
lacing piano over a one-kilometer
course four times at an average speed
of approximately 243 miles an hour.
Maitland's maximum speed for one
trip across the course was 2S1.4 mile3
an hour, the fastest any human being
has ever traveled, according to offi
cials of the U. S. army air service
connected with McCook and Wilbur
Wright fields here. He was aided by
the wind. The lecord made by Mait
land exceeds the previous record if
233.01 miles per hour held by Sadi
Lecointc of France. As an official of
the Federation Aeronatique Interna
tionale, Orville. Wright is expected to
certify Maitland’s record today. The
speed trails were held over the same
field on which the "U'rlght brothers
perfected the first heavier than air
machine.
Shortly before Maitland established !
his record Lieut. It. J. Mqugtian, win
ner of the Pulitzer races last fall, es i
tablished a record better tha nthat of
Lecointe when he averaged 236.5 miles .
an hour In four laps. A new propel- I
ler, designed and built at McCook ’
field, Is said to be responsible in part
for the record.
