Read the following passage and mark letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions. Early on the morning of 31 May 1928, at Oakland airfield near San Francisco, the four men squeezed into the cramped cabin of Southern Cross. They waved goodbye to the crowd, took off and headed westwards over the sea. Today, an air journey of 12,000 kilometres attracts very little attention. But in 1928, the first flight across the Pacific was fraught with as much danger and risk as the first flight to the Moon 40 years later. Instruments for navigation and communication were often unreliable, the range of aircraft was severely limited and conditions for the crew were very uncomfortable. The crew of Southern Cross could not even speak to each other because of the noise from the engines. They had to communicate with scribbled note! Morse code and a short and long wave radio transmitter were their only links with the rest of the world. It took 27 hours for them to reach their first stop at Hawaii. After refueling and a short rest they were airborne again, heading for Fiji, on the longest and most dangerous section of the flight. Fiji was 5,000 kilometres away and Southern Cross carried fuel for no more than 5,760 kilometres! There was little margin for navigating errors. For most of the distance there were no weather forecasts available. No one had flown across the Pacific south of Honolulu before. It took them 33 hours, much of the time through terrible weather. Ulm and Smithy took turns at the controls but Smithy did most of the flying and Ulm kept the log. By the time they landed in Fiji – on a makeshift airfield – they were exhausted. They needed two days rest before beginning the last section of their flight. It was to prove the most difficult of all. Wild storms battered and tore at the Southern Cross. Most of the time poor visibility forced them to fly purely by instruments. There was no other way of knowing whether the aircraft was flying straight and level, climbing, or diving into the sea. And one of the compasses failed. After 23 hours of anxious flying they were relieved to recognize the Australian coast south of Ballina. Smithy turned north and landed at Brisbane’s Eagle Farm airport to the cheers of 25,000 people. (Source: Department of Education, Northern Territory Government, Australia) 38.
