FLIGHT TO AUSTRALIA.
MR CHICHESTER TO CONTINUE
(united press association— by electric TELEGRAPH —COPYRIGHT.)
LONDON, December 25. It is learned that Mr R. C. Chichester intends to continue his flight to Australia within a few days, when a new propeller and strut arrive. These were dispatched by De Havilands as soon as they heard of the accident. The damage to the machine is not serious. The accident happened while taking off *n the moonlight, which is always a difficult manoeuvre. It is not known here whether Mr Chichester has yet received news of his wife's death.
