Nice Niece hour in an F-86 over the newly installed General Electric course at Cleveland before a National Air Races crowd on Sept. 5. Only three passes were timed, four passes required for a record. The plane carried guns and ammunition. Johnson held the average around 670 miles per hour on orders. The record runs occur over a 3 kilometer course measured by the Coast Guard and Geodetic Survey to two inches. Runs must stay under precise control and finish within 30 minutes. Timing uses high speed cameras and electronics. A Navy Skystreak set the present record a year ago with Marine Lt. Col. Marion E. Carl.
