World Flyers Prepare New Run for World Flight
Uncertainty over the next stage of the American world flight ended with the arrival at Angmagssalik Greenland of the icebound support vessel. Lt Lowell H. Smith and Lt Attrick Neilson and crew prepared for the ice land to Greenland leg pending favorable conditions. The distance from Angmagssalik to Greenland's coast is about 500 miles with floating ice but a calm harbor and sheltering island lessen danger. Locatelli, Italian aviator, left Orkney to continue the trans Atlantic flight but returned after an hour noting unsuitable conditions for further progress. Zanni, Argentine aviator, faced a tire failure delaying his planned hop metropolitan world flight.
