FLYING FOR BOYS
SOUTH AFRICAN SCHEME.
Flying for schoolboys all over Natal is the aim of a scheme shortly to be put into operation. The scheme is really the working out of a suggestion made earlier by Sir Abe Bailey, the Union’s leading mining millionaire, to found a fund whereby the children of South Africa could be made more airminded.
Each province has a share in this fund, and it is about to be brought into practical being in Durban by holding occasional lectures —perhaps at weekends in the afternoon —which will be attended by boys from various Durban schools. While a lecture op some, topical phase of aviation is in progress batches of boys will be taken for flips in an eight-seater De Havilland Dragon airliner.
