Cliff Michelmore reports on the first day of the Daily Mail Transatlantic Air Race
By airliner, jet fighter, and private plane, competitors left London and New York this morning in a bid to win £60,000 for the fastest and most enterprising flights between the top of the G.P.O. Tower and the eighty-sixth floor of the Empire State Building.
BBC outside broadcast and film teams in London and New York cover today's action in the air and on both sides of the Atlantic from take-off to touchdown.
