CIVIL AVIATION
PLANS IN AUSTRALIA. GREAT BOOM EXPECTED. AFTER THE WAR. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) CANBERRA, April 6. Plans are already being developed by the Australian Government in preparation for the tremendous boom anticipated in civil aviation after the war. A Government spokesman said today that these envisage: (1) Night airliner schedules linking all the capitals with termini at Townsville and Perth; (2) air transport of freight and all firstclass mails; (3) dozens of feeder services for passengers and light freight connecting country towns to the cities and inter-connecting large country towns; and (4) two Government international lines one going east to America and the other west on the Empire air' route. Full use will be made of the hundreds of aerodromes that will have been constructed in Australia by the end of the war. ■ The Government’s plans will give work to 1000 of the men now in the Royal Australian Air Force. The internal services will probably be controlled on the same basis as at present, with private companies operating without competition on set routes under charter from the Government
