The World's Greatest Airman Cables This Wonderful Tribute "I appreciate die excellent quality of Plume which carried us safely three thousand miles through fog and over land and sea. 1 wish to express our appreciation of the skill with which The Vacuum Oil Company process and refine their Mobiloil so that it stood up to the more than nineteen thousand miles travel of the pistons and kept the motors working perfectly every minute of our trip. My experience with Plume and Mobiloil on many previous flights led me of course to select them for the flight of the 'Southern Cross' from Ireland to New York. The motors worked splendidly every moment of the trip and I know that much of their splendid performance was due to the high quality and thorough dependability of Plume and Mobiloil." This message was received from Squadron Leader Kingsford'Smitn by the Vacuum Oil Company Pty ♦ Ltd* PLUME and twoWhat Kingsford-Smith proved that Plume and Mobiloil can do in the engines of the "Southern Cross" every motorist can prove for himself* Although Plume is marketed in Au* tralia and New Zealand only, supplies were specially laid down overseas for this great flight at Squadron Leader Kingsford'Smith's request.
