(Canadian Press)

ST. JOHN'S. Nfld., Oct. l7. -—~. A Gypsy Moth plane piloted by a 20 year old English aviator, Comman- der B. C. MacDonald. was presum- ably soaring over the Atlantic to- night. hoping to demonstrate that it can accomplish a trans-Atlantic flight with a single flier. Bad wea- ther had kept the plane on this ‘side of the ocean since September 20. With excellent flying conditions prevailing today, Commander Mac- Donald hoppcd off from the Har- bor Grace airport at 1.21 p. m. stat- ing his flight was to be only a five hours duration test. but he had taken a. full load of fuel and other equipment necessary for the hop. and had not returned to Harbor Grace this evening. \

Thmplanc took off easily from the airport and after circling. dis- appeared eastward. It had n. cruis- ing range of 3.800 miles.

Apparently the Gypsv Moth was not observed crossing the coast. no report having been received. The weather turned cloudy (onlllhi m‘! the forecast predicted a southerly wind and showers. The latest mid- ocean report received by MacDon- ald indicated favorable conditions. The aviator himself ia something of a. novice at piloting. although he
