Considerable discussion is taking place by members of the local Aero Club as to the advisability in the interests of safety, of closing the aerodrome to the general public. It aPPears on several occasions recently pilots have not been able t 0 make immediate landings owing to numbers of pedestrians crossing the field. A‘ large number are women and children. The danger of being instantly killed by landing planes cannot be too strongly impressed. Pilots are much concerned and if persons ignore instructions, as It would appear, steps will be taken for. total prohibition to the grounds. Th fi public should 'he aware of the fact that an aerodrome is not for general use and is set aside especially for the use of aeroplanes. In their own interests persons should take particular notice of the warning. It is understood the public is allowed to use the immediate sides of the field but on no account, at any time must they cross the ground.
