p. 7 · Read in the full issue

A huge modern all metal Ford aeroplane purchased recently in England by Holden's Air Transport Services Ltd. for their passenger service in New Guinea was due to arrive at Salatnaua by the Friderun on April 16. At Holden’s workshops the plane will be unpacked from its large crate and will be in the air by the end of the month. The three-engined machine, known as the “G-ACAK,” is shown at the Ford Works, Dagenham, England, after having successfully completed test trials.
