AIR LINER SCHEME..
LONDON TO AUSTRALIA.
-The elliance of the Vickers and Shell interests for the purpose of inangarating airship services to India and Australia suggests that some thing definite may be arranged before the Govenment airships are handed over to the harsh mercy of the Dis- pols Beard, who would dispose of the Kingdom of Heaven without pity and without remorse if the task fell within their jurisdiction. One likes the frank admission of those behind the new plan for a service to India in three days and to Australia in seven days, that the venture is a speculation. Equally frank, too, is the admission that if the Government airships are taken or they are not to form the vehicles of the magt. services, for which they are probably
fitted, but for training purposes. If all goes well, it is hoped that it may be possible to inaugurate a bi-weekly service to Bombay and Perth, Westem Australia, next year, with calls at Esogoon and Singapore. Very Little has beez said about the design of the new airships, but there is good Bathority, that even without the data that should be obtained from test fights with the Government sirships,
commercial Bir liner could be designed and built to-day in which provision could, and would, be made for all the conditions likely to be met with in service.
It has been stated, however, that} sa cuter "nvelope of non-explosive gas would be fitted, and that to further reduce the fire risk kerosene would be used as fuel in place of petrol. The capacity of the new shi) sí as to be as high as five million cubic feet, which, with a lift of forty- äve tons, would enable 200 passengers to be carried. A Government guaranter of interest on capital is being asked for, and the request is not unreason- able for a scheme which aims at placing Australia within a week of London. With regard to the safety and comfort of passenger travel by the] airship services, it in contended that #bose who travelled by the early steamship services had iese comfort and probably ran a ranch risk and itį would be obviously unfair to compare #be accommodation which can be |
given on sirships with that of modern teamships. Shipowi ing interests are
maturally watching developmezta with open minds, as well as eyes which are **~oridely open and just as shipbuilding firms will be found in the forefront of mirship building one way take it for granted that any real development of mimhip travel in the commercial serse will be undertaken by shipownezí They are the last people in the wold to allow others to develop a new mode
