Post fails in record attempt over Lafayette
Wiley Post, trying to span the continent in stratospheric flight, had his magnoplane’s supercharger quit during the third attempt. He waited at Purdue airport after landing at 3:40 p.m. while preparing for refilling. The Winnie Mae, boarded by Post in an oxygen suit, had a 1600 mile trip average of 234.48 mph, slower than his second record. He reported winds from Burbank toward the Grand Canyon and that he flew blind for an hour after a clutch strip.
