Navy Constitution 'Visits' At Olathe
The nation's largest and smallest airplanes land on the same field. U.S. Naval Air station, Olathe, which will be the scene of the 18th National Model Airplane meet in July, was host Sunday afternoon to the nation's largest commercial type transport plane.
While traveling from Washington, D.C., to San Francisco, the Navy
Lockheed Constitution made an un-scheduled landing at Oathe to refuel because of strong headwinds encountered.
Conder, William M. Collins, USN was in charge of the plane's 96 passengers, including 72 newsmen present to publicize the plane's initial flight.
Lt. Comdr. Clifton E. Jackson, assistant professor of naval science, explained the Navy's plane has a range of 6300 miles. It could fly non-stop from San Francisco to London.
With a cruise speed of 250 miles per hour, the fully-loaded aircraft weighs 92 tons. It is powered by four 3500-horsepower engines and has a ten wheel landing gear. A double-deck arrangement provides for elaborate housing of passengers on the top deck and cargo on the lower deck.
