SI (AP) Pilot Thomas Reld. of Downey, Cat, broke the world's airplane solo endurance record here today and then lost his life while con tinuing his flight to earn bonuses to pay for a honeymoon. His plane crashed into a tree, and he was killed probably instantly. I '.. Just before Reid came to the national air races here, be and bis sweetheart in California were married. The day after the wed ding," the flyer set out for Cleve land where he saw an opportunity to earn enough money to pay for a happy wedding trip, by exceed ing the solo record. : iteia was to get siue ior every heir he remained in the air after he had passed the old record. "Watch 'mar-go." he had told fel low dyers 'here. "Each S100 means , that much longer tor the honeymoon'. And so; Pilot Reid, a husband of only a few days, took off in a Emsco plane with a Wright whirl wind motor, and a large supply of gasoline at 11:04 Thursday morn ing. Back and forth over the Cleve land, airport, Reld circled his plane hour after hour. Every trip seemed to bring him that much closerto his bride and their hon eymoon. But Reid was mistaken. Every circuit of his course only brought him ttfat much closer to "death. v At 3t minutes past midnight, last night, he equalled the solo record of 36:5t:3C set by .Lieu tenant Herbert J. Fahy may 29 at Los 'Angeles. Then Reid pilot ed bis plane away from the air port. A few hours later a search was started, and at daybreak; the plane was found.
