important Service delegations from foreign countries will be amongst others attending.

The number of aircraft taking part will be greater than ever, nearly 500 being engaged as com- pared with the. previous maximum of about 200.

NEW PLANES Another feature of this display will be the new types of aeroplanes recently supplied to Service squad- rons. Amongst them are the Bris- tol Blenheim medium-bomber with a top speed of about 280 miles an hour at a height of 14,000 feet.

This is the fastest bomber in the Royal Air Force and in ser- vice use in the world. The Blenheim Squadron will take part in a set piece.

The principal new heavy bomber in service will be the Handley Page Harrow which will be seen among. the

squadrons allotted to the Coronation mass formation of 250 aircraft. It has a top speed of 190 miles an hour and carries a much heavier load than the medium bomber class.

This flying programme occupies 51⁄2 hours during which the sky will never be empty.

STRIKING DISPLAY There will be low bombing and dive bombing attacks, aerobatics by single aircraft, by flights and by squadrons, demonstrations of army co-operation duties, and the use of "smoke," and, as a grand final, a thrilling set piece illustrating the methods of attacking and defending a port primarily used for the dis- tribution of food supplies in war- a matter of vital interest to the British public-British Wireless.
