          10. Destination of PAA Plane and Alternate Destinations.
 
               The intended destination of the Pan American aircraft is Lock Erne in
North Ireland.  In case of necessity one of the following alternates may be used in order of
priority:
 
                    (1) Lock Ryan,
                    (2) Islay
                    (3) Oban
                    (4) Pembroke
                    (5) Plymouth
                    (6) Foynes
 
The last named will be used only in extreme emergency and in the even that none of the others aer
available.  Horta, Azores, will be used as an alternate as a last resort.  PAA will arrange for swell
forecasts from Horta.
 
          11.  Flight from Lock Erne to England.
 
          Arrangements have been made with Air Marshall Sir Charles Portal to have Pan
American aircraft met at Lock Erne and for the party to be transported from Lock Erne to
London by British aircraft.
 
          12.  Return to the United States.
     
          Arrangements for the return flight to the United States will be under control of the
R.A.F. or the British Air Ferry Command which will issue instructions to the Pan American
Airways through Colonel H. A. Craig, member of the party.
 
          13.  Delay in Departure from Baltimore.
 
          In case of delays in departure from Baltimore, accomodations will be available in
