Wrights Flight and Dirigible Race at Hudson Celebration
Wright made multiple brief ascents from Governor's Island reaching 60 mph with a 7 minute sweep over the bay and a 4 20 PM finale before 20 000 spectators. Curtiss trailed in speed while a wing tip contact caused a minor landing mishap. Dirigible race to Albany began poorly as Tomlinson and Baldwin battled cross currents. Baldwin was rescued as his balloon landed 250 feet from Jersey Shore. Tomlinson later forced to land after fuel leaks near White Plains while the Half Moon and Clermont sailed upriver to extend the Hudson Fulton centennial celebration toward Yonkers and Newburgh with a river parade planned to Troy.
