Van Nuys, Calif., Mar. 28—
Here at -the Metropolitan airport
where a world’s record for speed
with a loaded plane was broken
several days ago by a Bach tri­
motored cabin ship fueled with
Richfield gasoline and lubricated
with Kichlube oil, thousands
have visited within the last week

plane. For this is the powerful
and fast product of America’s
Pacific west which, piloted by
Pat Fleming, snatched an inter­
national record for 100 kilome­
ters away from France on the
morning of March 26.
In addition to the big white
Bach bird being on display, Pilot
Fleming is also in the spotlight.
Every visitor wants to see and
to congratulate this lad who set
the new record. But Pat Flem­
ing is a modest creature, and
refuses personal credit, prefer­
ring to pass it to his plane and
