Air Mastery

BRITAIN LEADS RIVALS

ECRET PLANS AND MANŒUVRES BY FIVE NATIONS HAVE INTEN- SIFIED THE TREMENDOUS RIVALRY IN THE RACE FOR TRANSATLANTIC AIR SUPREMACY.

The five nations in the race are Britain, the United States, France, Germany, and Holland- and Britain is leading.

Our competitors have carried out specia- *cular experiments, but Britain has quietly laid the foundations for the first direct air service from Ireland to Newfoundland and New York. It is expected to start in the spring.

Imperial Airways is Great Britain's nominee in the British joint holding company.

Germany, concentrating on the catapulted seaplane type, has achieved success in flights from the Azores. Two machines completed 2,400 miles at average speeds of 110 m.p.h.

Cruising At 180 m.p.h.

Imperial Airways machines will cruise at 180 to 190 in.p.h.

There have bern many rumours. but Pan-American Airways, definitely prefers the British scheme.

Britain has five alternative schemes for air Atlantic service.

Most spectacular is the Short Mayo pick-a-back plane, which would enable a machine to lift #load of mall and petrol Im- possible under its own power.

The second scheme is refuelling in the air from a tanker,

A third is the catapult method, used by the Germans on the South Atlantic route,

Fourth and fifth schemes use two orthodox planes, one a land machine and the other a flying- boat.
