From Mildenhall to New Zealand.
DESCRIPTION OF FLIGHT. BY MR FRANK STEWART. MEMBER OF TAINUI’S GREW. Mr Frank tSewart, a member of the crew of the Dragon Rapide aeroplane, Tainui,. which, competed in the great centenary air race from Mildenhall (England) to Melbourne, and later carried its crew across the treacherous Tasman, gave, a piquant description of the flight at the Strand theatre last evening. Mr Stewart was the plane’s wireless operator and photographer, and during the -journey made full use of his camera, both from the air and on earth, with the result that he now possesses a remarkable collection of “snaps,” which he displays during his intensely interestnig and truly educational talk. Those who did not hear it last night should not fail to do so to-night.
