• “It wasn’t glamorous work; there
were no cheering crowds. But it was
important. More to the point, it was
almost the only job a female aviator
could get in 1935.”

Jim Granger will fly a Keith-Rider low-wing all metal monoplane with a W asp motor in the London to Australia race. H e conducts the Pacific School of Aviation at Clover Field, Santa Monica, Calif., where he has taught many a student to fly, including his vife and three sons. Jim 's flying dates back to 1913.
Martha C. Smith, local president of the W . N.
A. A. and executive chairman of the air meet, writes:
"A t the present moment we cannot definitely announce particular events, but I assure you we are going to have one which we feel will appeal to
women pilots. There will be several races (handicapped) and other events such as deadstick landings, bomb dropping and the like, with cash prizes. W e
also hope to arrange On-to-Dayton races from both
coasts. Suggestions from the 9 9 ’s will be greatly
appreciated.”
M acRobertson International Air Race
Since our columnist, Ann Onymuss, has this
month devoted her column Air-onically Speaking to
Clema (Mrs. Jim ) Granger, private pilot of Santa Monica, Calif., has three pilot sons: Jam es, Harry and Norman. She flew in two trans-continental derbies and has won many trophies. She will meet her husband in Melbourne after the MacRobertson Race. the London-Melbourne Race, it seems to fit in here
most excellently.
•
Since there is so much interest in the London
to Melbourne Race in October, we have collected
some data for The 99er.
There are 22 American planes among the 63
ships entered, with 4 American women— Jackie
Cockran, Laura Ingalls, Ruth Nichols and Louise
Thaden— and 1 Englishwoman, Amy Mollison.
Most of the European countries will be represented
by 1 or more ships.
G reat circle distance is 11,300 miles, but the route
flown will approxim ate nearer 12,000. There are
three water bops of about 450 miles each, unless
straight line distance is flown— and one might just
as well fly the Atlantic. . . . The route seems to include jungle and swamp impossible to land in with any degree of safety, deserts which are much better
from the survival standpoint, very tall mountains
and taller peaks, and much water. There are also
islands were, I have been told, one becomes dinner.
. . . Air ports seem to be more or less adequate, dependent upon the ability to select the stopping point.
There is not much night lighting.
The winner should go through in not more than
60 hours flying time, but will probably have an
elapsed time o f at least 68 hours, probably 70.
Fairly decent weather should be experienced except
for possible fog over France, and the likelihood of
the SW Monsoon over the Malayas. A monsoon,
incidentally, is a very bad, intense storm with heavy
rain and winds of between 40-45 miles.
W e trust that the first prize of $ 50,000 does not
lend over-enthusiasm to contestants, making the
MacRobertson another D ole Race. Low, slow, and
careful should be the motto. A n n O n y m u ss.
