DECEMBER 7, 1933 ADVERTISEMENTS. FLIGHT THE LOG OF THE ASTRAEA Extracts from an article in "Flight" of a journey from Australia to England with Imperial Airways by Hudson Fysh. "We had travelled 1,045 miles in 7 hours 50 minutes' flying time. . . . The Astraea had flown 688 miles in 6 hours 30 minutes. . . . We had flown 595 miles in 4 hours 45 minutes and the Astraea, after her wonderful flight from London to Melbourne, was still running perfectly, never giving one moment of trouble. After the long stages one stepped from the machine fresh and clean and without the usual experience of deafness and headache, which is associated with more noisy types of aircraft. " SIR W. G.
