Coshocton Tribune/1930/Jersey City Schoolboy Breaks Goldsborough's Trans-Continental Mark
Jersey City Schoolboy Breaks Goldsborough's Trans-Continental Mark. Los Angeles, California; August 19, 1930. Edward Schneider, 19-year-old Jersey City school boy, was receiving congratulations today on the new junior transcontinental flight record he established here last night at the completion of a cross-continental airplane dash. Young Schneider completed his flight from Jersey City in 29 hours 41 minutes, flying time when he landed his Cessna cabin plane at the municipal airport here at 7:13 o'clock last night. Flood lights aided the youth in landing. The new record supplants that set by the late Frank Goldsborough last May 4 when he flew from coast to coast in 34 hours, 3 minutes. Goldsborough died following a crash in the Vermont mountains on July 16. Poor visibility delayed Schneider's arrival here after he was forced down earlier in the day at Ontario. Taking off from Ontario at 5:19 p. m., the young flyer later landed at Long Beach, got his bearings and 20 minutes later set his plane down here.
