Aloha, a Breese-Wilde Model 5 then took off with Martin Jensen and Paul Schluter. Schluter wasn’t an aviator, but rather was a marine navigator who had seen an advertisement in the newspaper placed by Jensen

They were followed by the Woolaroc, named after the Oklahoma ranch of sponsor and oilman Frank Phillips, as way of promoting the company’s Nu-Aviation brand of gasoline.
