AERIAL PAGEANT.
FEATS BEFORE THE KING. < •' K By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. Received July 3, 11.5 p.m. London, July 2. Huge crowds at the Hendon aviation grounds, including the King and Queen and several Dominion Premiers, witnessed a Royal Air Force aerial pageant, in which a hundred aeroplanes and some of the most famous airmen, some of whom have thirty or forty war victories to their credit, participated. Airship R 33 directed the traffic by means of wireless to motor-cyclists, who disentangled any blocks. Some astonishing aerial feats were performed, including duels between aeroplanes travelling at 160 miles an hour.—Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn. .*
