FLIGHTS BY PRINCE.
(British Official Wireless.) RUGBY July 26. The Prince of Wales left yesterday to fly to Carnarvon to open the Royal Welsh Agricultural Show. Visibility and other conditions were so bad that a landing was made at Birmingham, about halfway. After waiting two hours for conditions to clear the Prince, on the insistent advice of the Air Ministry, abandoned hope of proceeding further and returned to Hendon.
The Prince had never had to postpone or abandon an air journey before this week.
