Photograph was edited for publication purposes Photograph caption dated May 22, 1965 reads, "Mrs. Jack Conroy welcomes her husband yesterday in the time-honored manner, after his record-establishing flight across the country and back to Van Nuys Airport. Looking on are young Conroys, from left, Timothy, 13; Billy, 11, and Barbara, 14, who accompanied their father and co-pilot Clay Lacy. Billy is dressed in his Little League uniform, because he had to get to a game as soon as the plane landed. The flight set three records for business type jet aircraft."
