AIRCRAFT EXPORTS.

FIGURES DOUBLED DURING

Rugby, Yesterday.

In spite of the worst conditions of depression, Britain has during the year doubled her aircraft exports.

Foreign Powers have placed several orders in England for the Intest military machines of the in- terceptor fighter class, of which two types have been developed dur- ing the year. They are designed to intercept fast day and night. bombers, are capable of speeds exceeding 200 miles an hour, and possess a remarkably rapid rate of climb.

Another factor in the increased aircraft export trade has been the popularity of the efficient light, aerpolanes. Aircraft experts also declare that the Handicy Page 42- seater machines, which have been built for the Cape Town service, are three years ahead of their rivals, in comfort, accommodation, performance and economy.-Britieb Wireless Service.
