NEW YOKE. May 25. (/P)—'“The
Spirit of St. Louis”, Cap: Charles A.
Lindbedgh’s plane built especially
for his New York to Paris non-stop
trip, was designed for scientific ‘ly
ing.
The little monoplane, with a wing
spread of 40 feet and a fuselage 28
feet long, has a special instrument
board upon which the former air
mail pilot depended for guidance.
With extra gasoline tanks and the
instrument board, the totrfl cost was
about $15,000. The plane is powered
with a Wright “whirlwind” J-2, 225
horsepower, nine cylinder, radial air
cooled motor, similar to that used
by Commander Richard E. Byrd and
by Clarence Chamberlin and Lloyd
Bertaud in the trans-Atlantic Bell
anca monoplane “Columbia.”
With full load the plane has a
cruising speed of approximately 105
miles per hour and a maximum speed
of 123 miles per hour. It carried
425 gallons of gasoline and 28 gal
lons of oil, estimated to be sufficent
for a 4,500 mile jump.
On his 2.500 mile trip from San
Diego, Calif., to New York City,
I indbergh used less than 250 gallons
of gasoline and the average consump
tion is computed ar about 10 gallons
per hour.
Its body of metal and wings of
wood. “The Spirit of St. Louis,” has
? gross weight of 4,750 pounds, the
full load o. gasoline and oil weigh
ing 2,745 pounds. Its cabin holds
only one man, sitting in a wicker
chair, with the “stick” between his
legs and with little opportunity for
the pilot to move about. It carried
no radio, but is equipped with a
pneumatic raft, for use in case of a
forced descent at sea. The plane is
equipped only with wheels and if
landed on the water could not take
off again.
Tlie cockpit is enclosed in glass
,rid Lindbergh flies “blind”, using a
periscope to see over the front of
lis plane, which he did rarely on
ois cross-continent lions. He was
glided by the instruments on the
elaborate board before him. In land
ying he uses a magnetic compass,
hther instruments on the board in
cluded temperature gauge, oil pres
sure gauge, tachometer, altimeter,
urn and bank indicator, air speed
md drift indicator, speed timer and
Clock.
