British Official Wlreles3.
RUGBY, 3rd December.
Sir Sefton Brancker, Director of Civil Aviation at Shrewsbury, yesterday said that private flying was increasing every day in Britain, and this year his Department was issuing pilots' licences and certificates for aircraft at doublo the 1928 rate. He anticipated that they would double the rate again in 1930. Every day they were moving towards making air transport pay its way, and as this materialised it was obvious that the demand for commercial aircraft would increase to very big proportions.
