...Orleans at the controls of a four-jet Lockheed Jetstar named Scarlett O'Hara. In Hanover, West Germany, 5,120 miles later (average speed: 489 m.p.h.), Cosmetics Queen Cochran, a onetime beauty-parlor odd-jobs girl who now owns Jacqueline Cochran, Inc., slipped into a suitably stylish Easter outfit, then stepped out to claim no fewer than 49 new flight records. (She already holds the ladies' speed mark: 842.6 m.p.h. in an Air Force T-38 jet.)
