MISSING PLANE SEEN
APPARENTLY UNDAMAGED
MORE PASSENGERS FROM KABUL British Official Wireless RUGBY, Friday. The missing Victoria airplane, which made a forced landing when flying from Peshawar to Kabul a few days ago, was located from the air this morning by Squadron-Leader Maxwell, near Sarobi, at the foot of the mountainous country leading up to Jalalabad. As seen from the air, the machine did not appear badly damaged. Nothing is known of the fate of the crew, but the tribe in that area is believed to be friendly. Another Victoria machine reached Kabul yesterday, carrying mail both ways, and returning to Peshawar with passengers. Further complements were brought away from Kabul to-day by two Victorias.
