Van Beekman were located from the air 120 miles south-east of Kalgoorlie. They informed the airmen who landed beside them that they became lost and were forced down through lack of petrol. Assistance is being sent to enable them to take off. The aerial search was continued yesterday without success. A land party found that the fire which was thought to originate from the aeroplane had been apparently lit by natives.
