Fine Record! In Civil Aviation
AUCKLAND, Tue. (P.A.).—“You have a very fine civil aviation record. I see no reason for any sweeping changes.” These were two guarded comments made by Sir Frederick Tymms, United Kingdom council member of the International Civil Aviation Organisation, who, with two British Government officers, arrived by an today to study civil aviation in New Zealand and report to the New Zealand Government.
They travel to Wellington by air tomorrow or on Thursday.
Sir Frederick, who is accompanied by Lady Tymms, expects to be in New Zealand two months.
His colleagues are Mr C. J. Warcup and Mr K. T. Spencer. Asked whether they thought land planes would replace flyingboats for the transtasman route, Sir Frederick smiled and preferred not to comment.
