NEW AIR TERROR
GERMANY REPORTED TO HAVE A NOISELESS 'PLANE London, October 15. A high officer of the Belgian Army General Staff reports that on a xeeent visit to the Dusseldorf aerodrome he was amazed to see a German aeroplane passing overhead quite noiselessly, although it was only 120 feet high, and travellmg at about 180 miles an hour, reports the Brussels correspondent of the News-Chroriicle. British Air Ministry officials " are sceptical, he adds, emphasising that a completely silent aeroplane is not yet within sight, though British experiments in that direction are proceeding. Few xealise that the air screw makes as much noise as the erigine exhaust, and no effective engine silencer has yet been evolved. /
