M.P.’S TO LEARN FLYING
Two members of tho British Parliament who wish to learn to ily, so that they can pay frequent and speedy trips to vheir constituents during tiio session are among the many charter members of London’s first aero club for instruction in light airplane flying, which opened last month. Few members have ever handled the “joy stick,” and the majority have never been up m a ’plane.
Business men, stock brokers, bookand artisans are included in the initial membership, and are eager to learn to run their own machines. Several women hare also joined, and a well-known rowing champion, tired of the water and anxious to ‘try bis luck in the air, is on the list. Tho club, known as the London Aero Club, has several baby ’planes, but the demand is so great lor instruction that probably it will bo necessary to order a. number of others. The grounds are at Edgeware, near London.
