A thousand miles per hour
The rocket airplane carries man to record speeds
Balloons study space first
The airplane reaches outer space
The balloon answers the first challenge of the sky
The dirigible goes around the world
Aviators reach for distant shores
The airplane circles the world
Over the North Pole by air
A long flight across the Pacific
Faster and faster around the world
