(AP) — The spindly airplane Voyager got a boost Monday from a tailwind off a storm near Guam, and a chase plane found the craft sound despite losing its wingtips, as it began its attempt to circle the globe non-stop without re fueling. Spokesman Peter Riva at Mojave Airport’s mission control center said the chase plane from Hawaii in spected Voyager early Monday. Voyager, heavily laden with fuel, maintained an average speed of 123 mph on its first day “and higher speeds are now being realized with a more favorable wind,” mission oper ations director Larry Caskey said. By afternoon. Voyager was more than 600 miles past Hawaii — 3,400 miles into its 27,000-mile, 10-day journey — and heading for the Phil ippines. The crew of Dick Rutan and Jeana Yeager planned to switch off Voyager’s front engine and fly most of the record-attempting flight on its rear engine to conserve fuel, al though it will lose speed in doing so. “You do better by going a little slower,” Jack Norris, flight technical director, said. “It’s more efficient.” Norris said the loss of the stream lined wingtips probably would di minish performance by only a cou ple of percentage points. In contrast. Voyager had more help from the wind than expected, picking up a strong tailwind from a Pacific storm 180 miles southeast of Guam. Sandinistas say American carried maps of prison are Tel Co the anin( | anyone v jhone calls in and m; Ice prost Chief meteorologist Ten Snellman said Monday, “We have a typhoon developing which could be devastat ing if it was in the wrong place. We’re going to vector him just as close to the typhoon as we can get. We should get really good tail winds.” Voyager, which took off Sunday from nearby Edwards Air Force Base, where it must land to claim the title for first non-stop, non-refueled flight around the globe, was placed on a course to skirt the northern edge of the storm, he said. Rutan, 48, stayed at the controls in the 5V2- by 2-foot cockpit from 8 a.m. Sunday to 5:45 a.m. Monday, then slept for three hours with the autopilot on while Yeager, 34, watched the systems from the adja cent 7‘A- by 1.8-foot cabin. After passing the Philippines, Voyager will cross the Thai penin sula and the northern Indian Ocean. From there it may cross central or southern Africa, Riva said. MANAGUA, Nicaragua (AP) — Officials said Monday a man they identified as an American caught near an air base carried maps of areas around the prison where Eu gene Hasenfus is serving 30 years for flying arms to Nicaraguan rebels. They said the man they named as Sam Nesley Hall, 49, also carried maps of the Pacific port of Corinto, where ships from the Soviet bloc un load cargo. Hasenfus, of Marinette, Wis., is in the Tipitapa prison 12 miles east of Managua. U.S. news reports said the man captured Friday is the brother of U.S. Rep. Tony P. Hall, D-Ohio. Tony Hall said Monday in Wash ington that he and his brother do not agree on the rebel question. “I didn’t know what he was doing in Nicaragua,” he said. “I wasn’t aware of the type of activities he’s al legedly been participating in.” Sandinista officials said Monday the man had not been charged. He was captured in a restricted military zone near the Punta Huete air base 13 miles northeast of Managua, they said. In Washington, White House spokesman Larry Speakes said, “We cannot confirm that the prisoner is Sam Hall. We will not even be able to confirm that he is an American until we have a chance to speak to him and see who he is, what he is and why he is there." The official Sandinista newspaper Barricada quoted Interior Minister Tomas Borge on Monday as saying the captured man carried maps in one of his socks, including one of the area around the prison. In addition to Hasenfus, 45, an es timated 1,500 members of the late President Anastasio Somoza’s mili tary are held at Tipitapa. The leftist Sandinistas overthrew Somoza’s U.S.-backed government in July I 070. Hasenfus was captured Oct. 6, the day after Nicaraguan troops shot down a cargo plane in the jungles of southern Nicaragua and he bailed out. It had been carrying arms and supplies for the U-S.-suppomp taf t | ( bels known as Contras. Barricada quoted Bor?eajidj an y u °|, 8' the man caug map of Corinto, 80 milfi ,;v r Managua.
