Lockheed to fit faster Lindbergh plane with new wing
Los Angeles Nov 17 AP Lockheed Aircraft general manager Squier announced a redesigned wing with a larger motor and disappearing landing gear for Colonel Lindberghs plane. He said top speed could reach 225 mph, up from 175. The wing folds into the wing, engine becomes 606 horsepower, and nine months of work at Burbank have produced the upgrade. Lindbergh reportedly told Squier he hopes to arrive in three weeks and that the change aims to speed air transportation, not set a long distance record.
