AN OPPONENT OF "STUNTING."
(United Press Association.—Copyright.) (Received 3rd December, 10 a.m.) NEW YORK, 2nd December. Sir Alan and Lady Cobham have departed in a Moth aeroplane for Washington. They will be presented to President Coolidge by the British Embassy and officials of the National Geographic Society. At a luncheon of the Advertising Club Sir' Alan Cobham, who was the guest of honour* said: "We've got to knock the 'stunt' out of flying. Flying wants to be utilised where necessary, not where other forms of transportation are more practicable." Aeroplanes similar to the Moth may be built for army and navy messenger' work.
