Ad Title Aeronca's Ten Thousand Mile Flight Sets 3 More Records! 
Ad Description Aeronca C-3 Flight Lieutenant D. Llewellyn recently flew an Aeronca C-3 from Lympne, England, to Johannesburg, South Africa - a total of 10,000 miles, with 36 demonstration stops made en route. A total of 130 hours flying time. Total cost for fuel $130. No replacements or overhauls. Again Aeronca demonstrates its leadership in the light plane field. Here again is indisputable proof of outstanding performance and reliability under all kinds of flying conditions - desert heat, extreme cold, three hours of flying blind over the Mediterranean, flight over uncharted jungle areas, landings, and take-offs from small, unprepared fields. Incidentally, three new firsts for light planes were set, (1) first jump from England to Africa; (2) longest flight for light planes; and (3) two 600-mile non-stop hops. Write for further details about this wonder ship today. Aeronca Low Wing
