1200-YARD RUNWAYS FOR MANGERE?—PIans are stated to be at present under consideration for the extension of Mangere Aerodrome in order to provide at least two runways each 1200 yards long. This plan is part of the suggested development of the aerodrome to make it adequate as the terminal of the trans-Tasman air service. One runway will run as marked on the map, A-A, and another, marked C-C on the map, will be extended to the main road past the aero club and Union Airways hangars. Surveys are at present being made of the area included in the dotted line.
