said the author. Also, the Schneider Trophy races have caused a considerable amount of research work to be done on the development of twin float seaplanes, particularly with regard to taking off the water at very high speeds and also to the air resistance of the floats. In the last year we have seen the advent of the Dornier Do. X, the largest flying boat yet constructed, whose total flying weight approximates to 50 tons. This, in itself, is an im- mense step forward, and all credit is due to Dr. Dornier for his cour-

So much has been written of late regarding long range flying boats that it may not be out of place here if I give you the actual figures that have been obtained an a large fly- ing boat recently completed by the firm with which I am connected. This flying boat, which was not built entirely for range purposes, has normal civil service factors at

the weight under consideration. In other words. I consider it useless

talk of range obtained by reduc ing safety factors below those re- quired for a normal certificate of airworthiness.
