The accompanying illustration shows the largest aeroplane in the world , the German Dornier Wai, which recently underwent her trials on Lake Friedrichshafen, the waters of which so many Zeppelins flew over on their initial flights. The new flying boat has been specially designed for long distance passenger flights, with the safe passage of the North Atlantic chiefly in view, and, later, extensions to the great South American cities. Two hydroplanes of the same type, but considerably smaller in size, are on order for Australia, and will probably be used on the New Guinea goldfields service. Although a “giant” to present-day eyes, the Dox in a few years will probably be classed as one of the small pioneers of aviation, for with the yearly advances made in aviation a machine is soon out of date and relegated to the scrap-heap.
