Young Piccard Happy After Strato Device Test Flight
MINNEAPOLIS UP The first test flight of new equipment for another stratosphere balloon attack was completed. Don Piccard 21 said the trial worked very well but low clouds limited altitude to 1200 to 1400 feet. The two hour ten minute flight landed near White Bear Minnesota after a wind shift sent the craft northeast. He tested a self designed valve to prevent sparks from backfire during deflation. The valve blocked sparks with a metal screen. Piccard noted the flight was busy aloft and the valve functioned well. His father Dr Jean Piccard supervised preparations but did not overstate the balloon’s merit. The balloon had been used by Japan in wartime bombing and Piccard obtained it from the navy.
