Liberty Motor Impresses Critics In Demonstration Flight
A Chicago meeting of newspaper men heard claims about the Liberty Motor’s practical aeronautical potential. A critic, shown by a pilot flight on Wright Brothers grounds, witnessed ascent to 20,000 feet and a 7,000 foot nose spin while noting the engine’s standardized parts, broad gasoline use, and forgiving cooling system. The observer reported the machine’s stability and two-seater design, with armament features, and predicted it could revolutionize aviation if proven true.
