Mollison Hops for Natal Brazil in Second Atlantic Flight
Captain James Mollison, British flier, left England for Natal Brazil on his second solo Atlantic crossing. He previously failed on the first attempt due to heavy fuel load but succeeded the second time, aiming for an eighteen hour flight aided by favorable weather. He departed with the Heart's Content, stopped at Barcelona, Casablanca, Agadir, and Villa Cisneros, tracing a path similar to Jean Mermoz. A Coast Guard ship earlier logged a possible sighting at North 23.58 West, speed near 100 mph, with weather noted as excellent.
