ADVANCE OF FLYING
PRIVATE AERODROME FOR PRINCE OF WALES (Rec. October 30, 5.5 p.m.) London, October 29. A feature of the Prince of Wales’s new country home, Fort Belvedere, near Virginia Water, is a private aerodrome of 100 acres, with hangar, dressing room for self and equerry. Trees planted to commemorate Queen Victoria’s jubilee have been cut down to facilitate landing and taking oft'. Thus the Prince is one among perhaps a score of Englishmen who have private aerodromes, though it is certain that every country house of any pretensions will have one within a decade.
