The fliers landed at Floyd Ben nett Field at 8:48 a.m., 7 hours and 31 minutes after taking off from the London Airport.

Penny, were flying a photo reconnaisance version of the Royal Air Force' Canberra jet bomber. Although a round trip over the Atlantic in a single day was made in 1952, it was over a different route from Northern Ireland to Gander, Newfoundland and back 2,766 miles shorter than the London-New York course.

Different combinations of holes are provid ed for each letter of the alphabet and for machine, operation. When this perforated tape t) fed through the Teletypesctter attachment on the Comet, it causes the Linotype keyboard to operate automatically, much as the oldtime piano roll op erated a player piano. As the keys are depressed, matrices, or small brass letter molds, fall from the storage magazines and assem ble into lines. When a complete line of matric es has been assembled, it is auto matically carried to a casting po sition. The matrices are presented to the face of a mold, and, in the casting process, hot molten met al is forced into mold opening and into every depression in the line of assembled matrices. It takes only an instant for the metal to cool, and the machine ejects a slug bear ing a solid line of type exactly the right height for printing. Follow ing the casting operation, the ma trices are automatically distribut ed to their proper places in the magazine for re-use.
