Marvels of Flying at August 26 Meet Latham Sets Records
Hubert Latham piloted the Antoinette monoplane to a distance world record on Thursday August 26 at the meet in which he covered six miles in ten minutes and maintained an average speed near 41 miles per hour. He faced delays from wing repairs and a small insect but resumed, finishing with dramatic racing against a Paris-Express train and an airborne display watched by thousands. Latham’s win followed adjustments to his aircraft No 1 and No 29, drawing cheers as he completed two hours forty three minutes of flying and equaled Paulhan’s distance record before returning to shore amid celebrations.
