Alcock and Brown after flying sixteen hours twelve minutes, arrived at the wireless station at Clifden. They circled around in aerials looking for a landing. Finally they slightly damaged their machine, landing in a bog.
The Marconi staff rushed to their assistance and found Brown dazed and Alcock deaf from shock. The landing staff escorted the aviator triumphantly to the receiving house, where he soon fully recovered.
Brown states they were constantly in a thick fog and mist. Sometimes they found themselves flying at 11,000 feet, and at other times upside down ten feet from the water.
A fine performance – 1919
