WITH BORROWED WINGS.
N.Z. Airwoman Flies Back to England. United Press Assn.—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright. (Received May 7, 11 a.m.) LONDON, May 6. Miss Jean Batten has arrived at Lympne from Rome in her repaired machine and continued her flight to Brooklands. She expressed her determination to try again to fly to Australia as soon as possible in order to avoid the monsoon. Miss Batten added that everyone in Italy had been most kind, but her return to England was impossible until an Italian lent her the under-wings of his machine. She must have new ones made because her old type are now not stocked. She said that she would return the Italian’s wings and start immediately her own are fitted.
