Menu For Flying
Squadron-Leader R. J. Makgill, A.F.C., captain of the Sunderland flying boat, Mataatua, believes that hot meals do not agree with passengers. “We can serve them cold chicken and salad and I think they are much better off,” he said, referring to catering arrangements on long flights. Squadron-Leader Makgill should be in a position to judge such matters, as he-has had wide experience of flying long distances, both on active service and in civil aviation. He flew with Imperial Airways and during the war was attached to Catalina flying boats and Hudson bomber squadrons in the Pacific.
