THE FAIREY BATTLE. BRITAIN’S FASTEST BOMBER —An impression of the new Royal Air Force low-wing monoplane, the Fairey Battle, a machine that can travel from London to the South Coast of England in about ten minutes. It is the very last word in high-speed fighting machines and recently underwent a successful series of tests at Heath Row Aerodrome, near Harmondsworth, Middlesex. The pilot is here seen with the cockpit open, but can totally enclose himself if necessary.
