LOW FLYING AT NIGHT
COMMENT BY COBOAEIt- AT~ PALMERSTON NSE^IP (P.A.) PALMERSTON N., Dec. 2. The amount of low flying done on the night of November 16 was commented on by the Coroner (Mr A. J. Graham) during the inquest into the death of Sergeant Pilot J. E. Dornbusch, who was accidentally killed late that evening when his aeroplane crashed. The Coroner said that the amount of low flying that night had caused a great deal-of comment. Complaints had been numerous about the disturbance caused, especially in view of the late hour. Hospital patients had been very much disturbed. The aviation authorities should give some thought to the needs of the people and avoid a repetition of such an offence. He had never known such a disturbance as there had been that night. While he realised that there was a war and that night flying was necessary, he hoped the authorities would give greater consideration to the people.
