HELICOPTERS MAY

HELP TO UNSNARL

BRITAIN'S TRAFFIC

Helicopters in a comparatively short time may provide at least a partial solution of the traffic problems of postwar Britain. But the possibilities of their wide- spread use depends first on their mass production in sufficient numbers and accond upon the relaxation of the present stringent regulations governing the flight of air- craft over Britain's major towns and cities, says Router.

Mass production is expected to be in full swing by next *pring, If, therefore, the "highway code of the air" can be modified, the Ministry of Town and Country Planning is expected to go ahead with plans for flat-roofed "airports" on the principal buildings and

One proposal under consideration is to land helicopters on the roof of the Ministry of Civil Aviation Kingsway, In the centre of London. These helicopters would operate be- tween the Ministry and London's three principal airports-Heathrow, 15 miles west of the Capital, Northolt, 14 miles northwest and Croydon,

10 miles to the south. At present, the journey is made by car or bus and, owing to traffic congestion, accounts for a quarter of the time taken to transport passen- gers from as far afield os Paris or Brussels.

Helicopters could also be used to expedite the passage of travellers between London and Pools In Dorset -terminal for the trans-ocean ser- vices between Britain, South Africa, and Austrolin.
