in which they disappeared, headed honeymoonwards.

Tribute
Imperial Airways is proud to re-publish these compliments offered so generously by an important aviation paper of the United States, American Aviation, 15 May 1938, on the IMPERIAL flying-boats
"We've been on the receiving end of a lot of hti insinuations that the British were for behind in commercial aviation, but we eat, say in all candor that one of the great experiences i Dying scheduled air transport lines was the New York bound flight on the (1stPraça flying-bont) GAVALIER (10 Bernuda). It is not a matter of being umpatriotic,,, but the British really havo something!
The first view inside (the IsrRIAL flying-bont) is breathtaking, .... The eyes first catch the great length of the cabin. Instead of one long cabin, there are four... three of them on as many different levels, connected by two or three seps the whole sight is most impressive to put it mildly'
Second impression is the great height of the interior. It removes completely the feeling of being crowded. Psyclustogically, it is a vision into the future... one doem't just sit at a window. One notes about in a luxury of space. There are no narrow aisles and one goes to the smoking. Inuge est only to smoke, but to have a drink!
Then there is that indefitinble sormething about Bruish service which is ever present. The British steward... was well trained, polished, quietly efficient, and added something to the psycho. logical effect of the trip... Unquestionably, the British have carried over into their air services the same type of passenger service they have on the sea..."
