AMERICAN ’PLANE
WELLINGTON CLUB’S ORDER
(By Telegraph—Per Press Association )
, * * November 3. To bring back an American machine, if he believes that it is suitable, Flight-Lieutenant C. B. Bolt, pilot-engineer to the Wellington Aero Club, left Auckland on the Ventura on Sunday. He is due to return to New Zealand about the middle of January next.
The committee, which believes that there is no English machine on the market at present which will fill their requirements, has selected a Waco four-seater. If this type of machine satisfies Flight-Lieutenant Bolt, lie will purchnse one on behalf of the club, and will either bring it with him or it will come by another vessel short, ly afterwards.
The machine which the club has in mind is a late model, the Waco Company having previously confined its activities to the production of threeseaters. When it, arrives, the machine will be the only American aeroplane operating in the Dominion.
