a

The 18-foot monoplane, driven at the terrific speed of 500 miles an hour, already has been tested

successfully and amazed even its developers. A new fuel mixture of liquid oxygen, which reaches temperatures of 390 degrees below zero, creates the explosions which attain # heat of 1,000 degrees fuhrenheit.

The plane itself was designed by Prof. Alexander, Klemla, direc- tor of the Guggenheim Institute of Aeronautics. The rocket motor was developed by Willy Ley, plonger rocket builder who has given 97 rocket flight demonstrn- tions, and Frido W. Kessler, pre- sident of the Rocket Airplane Cor- poration of America.
