14 Years’ Flying
Serious Accident
ON April 30, Tasman Empire Air ways completed 14 years of airways service between Aus tralia and New Zealand without any serious accident of any kind— probably a world record.
In the beginning there were only 3 flights per fortnight between Auckland and Sydney. To-day there are sometimes 14 return flights each week. The Co. carries more than 30,000 passengers each year—it re cently heaped presents and privileges on its 250,000 passenger.
The TEAL service is well known to South Pacific Islands travellers. ti The engagement was announced some weeks ago of Mr. Bruce Walkden Brown of the Methodist Mission on Normanby Is., Papua, tp Miss Betty Balfour, a scientist with the South Pacific Commission.
