That business men recognise in aviation a factor in saving time is illustrated by the following. A director of the Goldberg Advertising Agency attended a meeting in Dunedin yesterday and. having another meeting to attend in Wellington this morning, engaged Captain M’Gregor, of Hamilton Airways, Ltd., to fly from Dunedin to Christchurch in order to connect with last night’s ferry steamer. Leaving the meeting at 3.45 p.m, he travelled to Green Island, took oft' with Captain M’Gregor at 4 p.m., and, after an enjoyable flight, arrived at Sockburn at 6.50 p.m. From Sockburn he want by motor-car to Lyttelton, arriving in ample time to connect with the ferry By this means a day was saved. There is little doubt that more and more business men will, in the near future, be adopting the same means of transport.
