HOME-MADE AEROPLANE
WORK OF TWO AUCKLANDERS,
(Special to Daily Times)
AUCKLAND, August 29. A special single-seater monoplane which two Auckland enthusiasts commenced to build about three months ago is now almost completed and it is likely that the machine will be tested at the Mangere Aerodrome at the week-end. The builders and are Messrs R. G. Oustou and A. K. Crook, who estimate that the craft will have cost about £3OO by the time it is ready for the air. If the tests are successful the owners plan to take the machine to Melbourne, where it will be flown by a well-known Australian pilot during the centenary celebrations.
