The first paying passengers ever to be flown by airplane across the Atlantic stepped rat'her casual ly aboard the big gray Dixie Clip per today and a minute later were off for Europe ? scheduled to ar rive at Horta, the Azores, by breakfast tomorrow. While 5,000 spectators waved, and harbor craft> saluted with whistles, the $750,000 flying boat of Pan American Airways taxied smoothly over Manhasset Ray ? thenupward and out, opening a new erajn aviation. With the ship's departure at 2:12 p." m. (E. S. T.) on a 4,650 mile flight, aviation's long - cher ished dream of regular transat lantic passenger service by plane became a realty. Twenty-twtf passengers, some of whom applied for passage as long as eight years ago, and a crew of 11 were aboard the 1-ton flying boat that started the schedule of twice-weekly clipper flights to Europe. I Twenty-five minutes aftfer the Dixie Clipper's departure, another flight ended on the other side of the Atlantic, when the Yankee Clipper, Inaugurating regular mail service between the United States and England via Newfoundland, arrived at Southampton. Rand music and cannon salutes from four yacht clubs sounded as the Dixie soared away oh her jour ney to Horta, Lisbon and Mar- 1 seille. The village was flag-draped for the departure. The flying boat whose wing spread is 62 feet greater than the over-all length of Christopher Columbus' flagship, the Santa Maria, has sleeping quarters for 40 and flight decks comparable to a ship's bridge. Six of the 22 passengers are women. Mrs. Clara Adams, of Mas peth, N. Y., a veteran of history making flights, planned to keep on going after she reached Eu rope, and circle the world on regular passenger planes. She expected to arrive home in 161 days. Another passenger, Julius Rap paporti, Allentown, Pa., attorney, also planned a globe-circling jour ney. All the passengers have had fly ing experience, and most are vet erans of the airways. Several heads of corporations were in the group that paid $376 for one way fare or $675 round trip. * The schedule called for a one hour refuelling stop at Horta, and an overnight stop at Lisbon, the clipper cont'inuing to Marseille the next day, in a total elapsed timej of 48 hours out of New York. The return trip is to start Sun day. One passenger, W. J. Eck, said be applied for space on the first transatlantic flight wit'h passeng ers as far back as 1931, "and I've been calling up every few months since then ? just to hurry them up." In the old days all we expected of the government was govern ment!, and mighty litUeof that.
