LUXURY LINERS OF-AIR TESTED

Coast-to-Coast Flights Due At 300 Miles an Hour.

NEW YORK, July 29 (U. P).—A new luxury airliner now is being given final flight tests and will go into service early in September, flying from coast to coast at 300 miles an hour on a dawn-to-dusk schedule. It is Douglas’ DC-6 with a pressurized cabin permitting flights in the sub-stratosphere. United Airlines, which has ordered 35 of the $1,000,000 planes, describes the craft as “the first postwar transport luxury liner,” and will designate them as the Mainliner 300. 26 Can Sleep Aboard The new designation marks an-| other milestone in the history of alr transportation.

The new ship, powered by four Pratt & Whitney engines developing 8400 horsepower, will weigh 42 tons, fully loaded, United plans to use some of them for sleepers with accommodations for 26 passengers, who will retire when the plane leaves New York in the evening and be on the West coast in time for | breakfast the next morning.
