CAPTAIN DOISY AT PEKING.

END OF THE STRENUOUS TRANS-SIBERIAN TRIP,

Poking, Juno, 18. Captain Doisy landed In Mukdom. from Chita at 3.15 this afternoon. He leaves for Peking to-morrow morning

A message from Harbin states. that Lieut. Botved, the Danish" aviator, arrived there at 12.30 on: June 16 and hopped off at five the next morning, arriving at Man chull on June 17 at 10.40.

Captain Dofsy had been expect ed at Harbin on Jung 17 but he altered his course after passing the Hingan range, hending south and, apparently followed the Taonan Railway

He was last seen over Fulnert, the Brat atation westward of Tsitsihar, flying at a great height, He eventually landed at Mukden.

Peking. June, 18. Captain "Doisy arrived at 10 o'clock this morning,

Later. Interviewed by Reuter's repre-... sentative, Captain Doisy said that he had had a stronnous trip on account of the nature of the coun try especially Siberia and the Ural | Mountains which he was compel- led to fly over at an altitude of not more than 10 feet in places.

He was forced to abandon ä direct fight from Irkutsk to Peking owing to the smallness of the landing ground at Irkutsk which prevented him taking on a full load of fuel.

1

He completed his flight in eight hops, covering 10,500 kilometres in 63 flying hours.

Captain Doisy stated that he had definitely abandoned the idea. of flying to Tokyo and that he was not anxious to undertake the re- turn flight to Paris. He added that the Soviet authorities gave him a good reception everywhere. -Router.
