By LAURIE ACKROYD
FIRST AEROPLANE to fly across the Pacific Ocean, the famous \"Southern Cross\", and her pilot Captain Charles Kingsford-Smith made headlines in news reports throughout the world during 1928-1935. She began life in an unfortunate way when two Fokkers operated by Captain Sir George H. Wilkins the explorer met disaster -in Alaska. The wing of an F.X. was fitted to an F.VII fuselage to make one out of the two wrecks, and minus motors or instruments it was sold for £3,000 to \"Smithy\" and his co-pilot Captain C. P. T. DIm, a fellow Australian. .
First she was called the \"Spirit of California\" and made a 49-hour attempt to break the World Duration record; but in May, 1928, she left Oakland as the \"Southern Cross\" and was flown 7,938 miles via Hawaii and Fiji to Brisbane, Australia, and then began a seven-year career of pioneering and pleasure tripping.
