FOUR AVIATORS INSPECT PLANE TOMORROW SKT AS LATEST DATK FOR XKXT HOP Trip te Fiji Islands to be Made by Ouartrt la Southern Cross . on Srbednle BARKING SANDS. Island of Kauai. Hawaii. June 2. (AP) work was being rushed here to - nlght to prepare the monoplane, Southern Cross for a hop off to-, wards Suva. Fiji Islands, at day break Sunday. Suva Vs expected to be the next and second stopping point in the plane's flight for Syd ney, Australia. The army signal corps office announced, receipt of word that the Southern Cross was to take off at 4 a. m. Sunday (6:30 a. m. Pacific time). The departure from Wheeler field, island or Oahu, for the Barking Sands runway followed a busy 36 hour period during which the four aviators. Captain Charles Kingeford-Smith. Charles Ulm. Harry W. Lyon and James Warner intpected their plane, measured the gasoline remaining after their. flight from Oakland. Cal., studied ""t" -tris. auu oiner uaia ward. - HONOLri.r. June 2. ( AP) Eager to resume their air journey to Sydney. Australia, the four men of the giant monoplane Southern Cross devoted- today to an inspection of their machine. Their triumphant arrival yester- 1 day from Oakland. Calif., after a flight of 2 4 00 miles heightened courape already hijrh for the great adventure over a total of TS00 miles to the antipodes. If the plane and the field at Barking Sand6. Island of Kauai, are ready the flyers may take off for the South Seas tomorrow or Monday at the latest. Charles' dm. who with Captain Charles Kingsford-Smith. piloted the giant plane, explained that his determination to maintain the or iginal schedule was an outgrowth of "criticism in Australia for our long delay in getting started." "Some of our critics have even been so unkind as to dub us the 'non-hop flyers'," continued Ulm. "But we have paid no attention toJfcaCfloiL.of stuff, ana have bat ted right along. "We have gone into this thing exhaustively as is humanly possi ble and we are planning 100 per cent performance all the way to our destination." Vim explained that since the flyers began planning the flight to Australia they had investigated all trans-oceanic air trips for the both successful and unsuccessful. "There was some lesson for us to be learned from every flight and we purposed to learn it be fore we took off on our own ac count," he added. A conference was held by Ulm and Kingsford-Smith last night with Edward II. Bryan of the Bishop museum here concerning the islands lying south of Hawaii on the course to Suva, PiJI. Until one o'clock this morning the flyers questioned Bryan and examined all available photo graphs having a bearing on this stage of their journey, particular ly of the Islets of Canton and Enderbury. These coral atolls dot the Pacific 1.822 miles south of Honolulu and 1,316 miles north 'of SuTa- They are directly along the course of the Southern Croes and offer a haven in event of forced landings. While no trouble is expected by the air men, they believe in being prepared one indication of this is the care with which they are making every arrangement. Should they be forced down before reach ing Suva, they will be able to erect with their radio equipment a land sending station with which to advise the world ofheir plight and their position. Their plane's engines were in excellent condition and "young" as engines go. said the aviators. Both Kingsford-Smith and Ulm asserted they were not worried about the take-off from the Bark ing Sands runway. They said that the i.500 foot runway there was more than twice the distance that the Southern Cross required for the hop off at Oakland, where 2800 feet of the runway were used before the plane gained enough speed for flight.
