FRIENDSHIP’S CREW
TRIBUTE TO PIONEERING AIRMAN. Rugby, June 24. A moving tribute to the memory of one of the pioneers of trans-Atlantic flying was paid yesterday by Lieutenant Stultz, pilot of Miss Earhart’s Atlantic seaplane, Friendship. and Mr Gordon, navigator of the machine, when they flew to Manchester. After a civic reception they laid a wreath on the grave of Sir John Alcock, who with Sir Arthur Whitten-Brown, made the first flight across the Atlantic in 1919.—British Official Wireless.
