PLANES TO CARRY 100.
. ITALY'S POST-WAR AIR SERVICE. Thanks to the war, a great development has been brought about in aviation in Italy.. Italy to-day builds the largest and most: powerful machines, and after the ■war it will be possible to' institute very reliable lines of communication by aeroplane in the whole of Italy and between that country and its colonies. Further, in all probability a'regular aerial post will be established with Sicily and Sardinia and between the large towns of the last-named island. As showing the reliability of the aeroplanes Italy is now constructing, the engines are as immune from trouble as those of motor-cars. A large "contractor states that after peace iB declared it is proposed to build aeroplanes in Italy each to accommodate nearly 100 persons and to be capable of flying in all weather conditions.
