Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright
LISBON, August 14. (Received August 15, at 11.5 a.m.) Experiments in an aeroplane with a sextant invented by Admiral Oautinso have given complete satisfaction. The pilot was able to disregard territorial observations and to take his bearings entirely by astronomical observations, including the latitude and longitude. It is anticipated that the methods of aerial navigation by this means will be altered and air travelling greatlv facilitated.—Reuter.
