AIR AND SEA SICKNESS
NOTABLE EXAMPLES. That Colonel Moore-Brabazon, one of the pioneers of aviation and a pilot of the greatest skill and experience, should have admitted that he suffers from air-sickness and is troubled by noise when flying, is a reminder that Nelson was invariably seasick, says the writer of The Londoner's Diary in the Evening Standard. Noise in airplanes is growing much less, though cotton-wool is still provided for passengers. I have noted the rapid improvement in this respect within the last year or two. Air sickness is a different matter, and will probably always affect certain people. It is curious that those who suffer from it are rarely seasick, and that bad "sea-sailors" frequently feel no uncomfortable symptoms when flying. I have noticed, as a constant passenger, that women are the greater sufferers from air-sickness.
