Description
This original Gamma, created for Frank Hawks, Aviation Department head for Texaco, was delivered to Texaco in December 1932. It was equipped with a Wright 14 cylinder engine of 785 horsepower. Its top speed was approximately 223 miles per hour and because of the efficient wing and flap design, it could land at a mere 65 miles per hour. The range at cruising speed was 2,500 miles, allowing non-stop coast to coast flight capability.
On June 2, 1933, Frank Hawks flew non-stop from Los Angeles to New York in 13 hours and 27 minutes, breaking his old record of 36 hours, 48 minutes and 48 seconds.
