Abstract
THERE has, during the past months, been talk of an alternative air route, via Africa, to India and Australia. The recent survey flight of the flying boat Guba has brought matters a step farther forward, and in the Daily Telegraph of June 22 Capt. P. G. Taylor, the pilot, is said to have expressed the opinion “that as all the island bases fulfilled expectations, there was no reason why an air service should not be started at once”.
