Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: Air-conditioned flight: Peter Lawrence; chief engineer of Ultra Flight; which manufactures the 180-pound Lazair airplane; found that it doesn't pay to ignore the plane's one-hour flying time limit on its one gallon of gasoline. He came down in a field -- but another gallon soon had him back in the air.
