AIRMEN'S TRAINING
FLYING IN THE WIND ' (Special to "The Evening Post.") CHEISTCHUECH, This Day. The weather conditions have not been all that could bo desired, but despite this the refresher course for Air Force pilots, now being conducted at the Wigram Aerodrome, has run to schedule so far. Pilots who were seen in schooling flights yesterday afternoon demonstrated a high degree of skill, considering that the number of hours they have spent in the air is comparatively small. The strong south-east-erly of yesterday proved a test of ability, and one or two machines which came down slightly across the wind had difficulty in landing without damage. .
