PRIVATE AIRDROME
FEATURE OF PRINCE’S NEW HOME KEEPING UP-TO-DATE 2 p.m. LONDON, Tuesday. A feature of the Prince of Wales's new country home at Fort Belvedere, near Virginia, Water, is a private airdrome of IUO acres, with hangar and dressing-room for himself and equerry. Trees planted to commemorate Queen Victoria's jubilee have been cut down to facilitate landing and taking off. Thus the Prince is one among perhaps a score of Englishmen who have private airdromes, though it seems certain that every country house of any pretensions will have one within a decade.
