BRITISH AIR ROUTES
SEVERAL NEW SERVICES RAILWAY COMPANIES’ PLANS. (British Official Wireless.) Press Association —By Telegraph—Copyright RUGBY 1 , April 28.. Owing to the comparatively short distances involved and the excellence or the rail and road transport services the establishment of air routes within Britain had no great incentive. Nevertheless, the railway companies, after three years’ experience of running certain air routes, felt justified in extending them, and nine new services totalling 6,000 miles will now be opened by them in conjunction with Imperial Airways. De Havilland four-engined and twin-engined planes are being acquired for the new services, which will be opened next month.
