“A liealare in favour of aviation in Xew Zealand is die mount,niuoiis eoinilry here," staled the Direetor of Air Services (Wing-Com-mander Sluarl Grant-Dalloii), speaking at the New Zealand Club luncheon al Wellington. -| say it is in ravour of aviation, because in Hying you elimmale the mounlains. You Jly over them, instead of having to drive right tip or right round them; and by Hying over them you reduce the disjunct l citormouslv. Aioimlniinuis country has disadvau--1 ages ill ease of forced landings, but the aeroplanes of the future will not have forced landings. They will be multiple-engines, and the engines will not nil go on strike at once. They will he able to carry

on willi one engine out of eommis

•" n to carry oil to the next aerodrome, ;d. all events. So that mountains will not worry the aviator id Ihe future. One dif'lieulty, however, is the ‘humps' out here, I have ‘hme a good deal of Jiving in England and in Egypt; and, being u bad sailor, 1 do not like ‘blimps,’ so ! go high up to nvoid them. But Imre u round Wellington, in the hilly eoimlry, I have had to hang on to tlm machine In avoid falling out, if is so ‘bumpy.’ If, therefore, the I'ommeri-ia I 'phinos try to economise by Hying low, .as they do at Home, tlivy will get such an awful •Immping.' I hope, therefore, dint I hey will idiuili into a higher and less ‘humpy’ atmosphere. It can be done, gli it lakes longer and uses more petrol; but the passengers will have a better trip.”
