Guinea And Central Fiji
A HUDSON aircraft owned by Adastra Airways, of Sydney, has commenced a 5,000 square miles photographic air-survey of Eastern New Guinea. Captain Frank Minjoy has a crew of three —navigator, mechanic and photo grapher. The survey team expects to be here for a month, carrying out the work for the Department of Interior, which wants the photo graphs for mapping purposes.
Adastra Airways have been carry ing out a similar survey for the Government of Fiji, but has been handicapped and delayed by much cloud over the central mountains of the two main islands.
