(Special to the "Evening Post.")
MASTERTON, This Day
As a result of a taxi-ing mishap at the Hood Aerodrome yesterday morning one of tho Wairarapa Aero Club's machines, ZK-ABE, was fairly extensively damaged. The mishap occurred when Mr. S. Barry, of Wellington, a member of the club, was landing on his return from the Nelson ah- pageant. The aeroplane ran into the fence on the northern side of tho ground, one wing being almost broken off, the other wing slightly damaged, tho propeller smashed, and the imder-carriago damaged. The badly-damaged wing will have to be completely rebuilt, and it is expected that repairs will take about a month.
