FLYING FUTURE IN NEW ZEALAND.
In a broadcast review of the flight Sir Charles said that the Ninety Mile Beach was perfect for the take-off. The visit tp> New Zealand had been a financial success. It was evident that the future of aviation in New Zealand was secure.
On their arrival at Mascot the crew stepped from the aeroplane as fresh as though they had been for a short pleasure trip. Mr. Stannage was enthusiastic about the two-way communication he maintained most of the time with the three passenger ships, Wanganella, Monowai, and Marama, which they did not sec.
The passenger, Mr. Mackay, said: "My outstanding impression of the flight is that there is not a semblance of monotony. I was a wee bit disappointed, however, when Sydney passed under our wheels. I had expected-the motors to splutter or ttie radio to jam during the long journey, but no, the giant bird flew smoothly."
