UNAUTHORISED AEROPLANE T DESCENTS. I HUTCHISONS PAY FOR EXPERI- | ENCE. { BW’T e-lcgraph— Press Aissn.— Copyright.) W. Received This Day, 8.5 a.m.) COPENHAGEN, Sept. 6. Mr and Mrs Hutchison, who are •making an air tour of the world, have been lined 1000 kroner (£oU)-for landing in Greenland without permission. SEEING THE WORLD BY AMPHIBIAN. AIR CRUISE OP “THE FLYING FAMILY.’ * (“Sun” Special). NEW YORK, Aug. 26. “Mother” Hutchison,-who is taking the family with her to “see the world” by aeroplane, scoffs at the idea that she is running her children into danger on the North Atlantic route. The “Flying Hutchison Family” consists, of Mr George Hutchison, who will be pilot, his wife, and their two daughters. Blanche Kathryn is aged eight, and Janet Lee is six. They have arrived at Anticosti, in the estuary of.the St. Lawrence (Canada), by air from New York, via St. John (New Brunswick). They are on their why to London, via Greenland and Iceland. Their huge , amphibian, ‘ ‘ The' Flying Family, ’’ has 10 aboard altogether, including a mechanic, a wireless operator, a navigator and a camera man. The flight is attracting the attention of all America, and Mrs Hutchison admits she has received many protests from all kinds of people, who protest against the parents taking the two little girls with them “on such a dangerous flight.” “But I try not to pay any attention to them,” she says. “We have visited every State in the United States, •and we have flown thousands of miles without mishap. We will just jog along across the Atlantic, the same as anywhere else —no hurry whatever. We will- just wait for good 'flying weather, fly a few hundred miles, and then rest some moire. The children are very excited at the prospect of seeing Eskimos. They will have their nap every day in the ’plane’s lounge. “We shall be O.K. It’s just our way of seeing the world.”
