Show She had a morbid fear of flying, says this popular actress, so she made herself pilot a single-engin- e plane on a record- - smashing trip to Europe For weeks, pilot friends of mine helped me to learn to fly by dead reckoning. They took me out over water, took away my instruments, made me get lost. Then I had to find my way back. They simulated all kinds of emergencies. Many tried to discourage me. I was warned that even today few people go e in planes across the Atlantic and that, being a pilot for such a short time, I was an idiot to plan it. With all the training I did the few weeks before "my flight, I still had only 15 actual instrument hours to my credit and scarcely 500 flying hours altogether. I found it tremendously complicated to take off from a big airport like LaGuar-diI'd been given certain c'earances, and they were amended just before I took off and then changed again. It's easy to get confused! But what a wonderful feeling as the plane lifted off at last, heading for my first stop Moncton, New Brunswick. The flight in the single-engiAero Commander 200 took me on a 6,269 mile from LaGuardia to New Brunswick, Labrador, Greenland, Iceland, Scotland, and into Copenhagen. The estimated flying time was 22 hours and 25 minutes, but due to inclement weather, the flight took a week because I had to wait four days for the weather to clear up. The actual flying time was about 25 hours. There were some frightening moments other than my climb out of the Greenland fjord. The most rugged part of the trip was the leg between Iceland and Scotland. When I took off from Reykjavik, the plane's door opened. The noise was simply horrendous, but I didn't want to go roaming around the cockpit to pull it shut. I also encountered icing. I had no choice but to drop below freezing level. The ice sounded like a machine gun when it broke off the propeller and hit the windshield. The trip's climax was my arrival in Scotland. It was night and raining hard. They had bagpipes waiting for me, and when I jumped out of the plane, three policemen "arrested" me for rot having the right papers. Luckily it was just a gag. There was only one disappointment about the trip. My visa to Moscow didn't come through. My first reaction after I got back back home was, now that I've done it, I'll stick to knitting. That feeling didn't last long. I am studying charts of the Pacific now.

With conventional spark plugs, only a fraction of the fuel that enters your cylinders is turned into power. The rest escapes through your tailonly pipe as unburned vapor. That is because their spark is so narrow of an inch wide that it cannot possibly ignite all the fuel mixture in the cylinder. As plugs act older, their sparks gel narrower and lata efficient till they have to be replaced. New Jet-F- ir Fuel Igniters do a far better job of turning gasoline into power. Instead of a narrow spark, they send out a wide swath of flame that "walks" acroas a tip, fanning out in all directions and exploding far mora fuel in the cylinder.
