Latham Fails Channel Crossing in Monoplane Flight

French aviator Herbert Latham attempted to cross the English Channel from Sanatte cliff in a monoplane. After more than half the distance at about 70 feet, engine trouble forced a descent and he was rescued by the torpedo boat destroyer Tarpon. He remained dry and calm, smoking a cigarette, and planned to retry after repairs. The aircraft sustained minor damage, mainly from being hauled aboard. Orville Wright later set high marks at Fort Myer with two flights totaling about 55 minutes and roughly 37 miles covered. The first flight lasted 25 minutes 18 seconds, the second about 30 minutes, with Wright circling the grounds and making 25 to 29 orbits, while Wilbur Wright noted a speed near 41 mph and a height of several hundred feet.
