MODEL PLANES
SHIPMENT TO SINGAPORE. • Ono shipment of 2,700 aeroplane models has left Britain for Singapore. The value of the shipment is round about £5OO. Since war broke out no fewer than 300,000 of these models have gone overseas from the same model aircraft factory in London. They are shipped in parts all ready to be assembled by model enthusiasts in both hemispheres. There is a practical side to the hobby; putting together’ these realistic little Hurricanes, Spitfires, Westland Lysanders, Blenheims, Wellingtons, Messerschmitts, Heinkels and others is an ideal way to train for aircraft “spotting.”
