AIR PATROLS
BOY SCOUT ACTIVITY. - Air patrols for Boy Scouts interested in aviation may be established in Australia in the near future. It is suggested that Rover and Senior Scouts should be trained in aeronautics, mechanics, and aerodrome routine, the period of instruction lasting at least a year. The boys will take the part of a ground crew and learn how to wheel planes out of hangars, to place and remove wheel blocks, to refuel, check oil levels, test stays, and swing the planes to the wind. Boy Scout Air Patrols were started with enthusiasm in Britain last year.
