THE RIGHT TO FLY.
"Has every .man a right to fly if he can, and 'if iso, where ? asks ithe Morning Post. These are questions with which at no distant date •■the' lawyers will have to deal, for until some answer has beexi given to them it will riot be easy to answer the perhaps harder question whether a foreigner has a right to fly into the air above Great Britain, or a British: subject to fly into the air above a foreign country. , Theffactt t that no less than eleven aeronauts' recently flew from Calais across the English Channel and landed in England, and that seven of them continued the aerial journey us far as Hendon, is a remarkable proof of the advance in, the art of flying and of the science of constructing flying machines. The law of all countries will therefore soon, have to begin adapting itself to the new conditions of movement.
