INCIDENTS OF THE FLIGHT.
Received 11.40 p.m., May 28
LONDON, May 27. The only food the aviators had during the flight was a sandwich, a bar of chocolate and several cups of hot coffee.
Hawker was very seasick when he descended to the surface of the ocean. The wireless installation proved useless, and otherwise, the filter getting rusty was the only trouble. Hawker states it is a hundred to one that he will fly the Atlantic this summer
