Speeding Airplane Emsco Cirrus Aircraft 135 MPH Art 1929 Advertisement

"The Emsco Cirrus plane, because of its clean design and its reliable power plant, has the remarkable top speed of 135 MPH."

Letter from Emsco Aircraft Corporation to F.R. Maxwell of American Cirrus Engines

letter: "We were amazed and believe you will be interested in the recent performance of one of our models of the Emsco Cirrus , sport and training monoplane, powered with a 95 HP, Cirrus engine.  On a personal business trip from Los Angeles to Oakland, California, John Guglielmetti, former pilot for the Transcontinental Air Transport and a close personal friend of our Vice President, Mr. Charles F. Rocheville, piloted the Emsco Cirrus on the 350-mile flight in three hours and 45 minutes. The time was not remarkable for there was no reason for the speed but the motor burned only 4.8 gallons per hour. His gasoline bill for the trip was $4.14 and so surprised was he that he brought the gas receipt back with him.  Mr. Guglielmetti in a letter to Mr. Rocheville states that the weather conditions were normal there being little or no wind for the whole trip. If you desire I will forward you a copy of the letter and a photograph of the plane."  W.R. Yahmer, Advertising Manager, Emsco Aircraft Corp."
