Along with the information is this card entitled "Record Breaker." It reads: "First product of Hughes Aircraft Company was Howard Hughes' uniquely designed H-1. Experts said it was farther ahead of its time than any plane built since the Wright brothers'. In 1935 Hughes flew the H-1 to a world's land plane speed record of 352 mph, many years before any military pursuit planes attained this speed, and in 1937 Hughes flew the H-1 from Los Angeles to New York in seven hours, 28 minutes, a record which stood for eight years. The H-1 was the first plane with a smooth metal surface, leading edge air duct intakes, jet thrust exhaust, bell-shaped cowling, drooping ailerons, and the first to have a power-driven retractable landing gear. -0- "
Back of the image with information about the plane, entitled "High-Speed Photo Plane Revealed." The inscription reads: "Culver City, Calif., July 7 -- A new high-speed, long-range photographic plane was revealed in its first test flight here today. The XF-11, designed and built by Howard Hughes in conjunction with the Army Air Force, is of entirely new design and will permit very thorough reconnaissance missions. It has a wing spread of 101 feet, 4 inches, and is powered by two 3000-horsepower radial engines with eight-bladed contra-rotating propellers. Army officials said it can attain a speed of more than 400 miles per hour and has a ceiling of more than 40,000 feet. -oo- Neg. No.HXF-1 Slug: High-Speed Photo Plane Revealed."
