A remarkable scheme for a regular air service across the Atlantic is disclosed in a memorandum on Atlantic air routes prepared by the Air Ministry and published in a Blue Book. An experimental seadrome has been constructed and tried out in shallow water. The seadrome, it is stated, will provide all the usual amenities of a land aerodrome, such as refuelling and repair facilities. Our picture is an artist’s drawing of a seadrome design in the water.
