New Plane Tops World In Its Range WASHINGTON, May 21 (jD The longest range plane in the world, the Navy's P2V Neptune, has been successfully launched from an aircraft carrier, It was learned yesterday. A Navy official said the Nep tune was launched with Jet power assistance from the 45,000 ton carrier, Coral Sea, off the Virginia Capes last month. The craft flew to a landing on shore. This type of plane a two-engine craft set the world dis tance record of 11,235 miles on a flight from Perth, Australia, to Columbus, Ohio, in 1948. Earlier the Air Force had re ported that a B-36 bomber has made an 8,000-mile flight on a simulated bombing mission. This was described as probably the longest flight In history with a full load. The Navy official, who de scribed the Neptune's takeoff from the carrier, said the plane could be modified so as to make a landing on the carrier. The Neptune weighs some 70, 000 pounds, and would land with an impact force of about one and one-half times this weight, he said. The weight of a normal car rier plane is under 20,000 pounds, the official explained.
