OBJECT ACCOMPLISHED
Commander Franco has arrived at Pern'ambucoj Brazil.
A glance at the map will show that the direption of the flight from Spain is almost in a straight line south-south-west. The first stage was to the Canary Islands from Melalla, in Morocco, thence to the Cape Verde Islands. The long leap across the South Atlantic from Cape Verde to Fernando de Noronha, a group of islands, just off Cape San Rogue, the most easterly point of South America, has been accomplished. The flight down the coast to Buenos Aires, within sight of land practically all the way, should be comparatively simple. Commander Franco is flying a Dorhicr "Wai" seaplane.
