The general finish and colour scheme of interior appointment will be ol a high order, and customers' par- ticular requirements in this direction can easily be met. On the lower deck '• amidships are two dressing-rooms—each to starboard—the forward one being for ladies and equipped with dressing-table, mirror, wash basin, etc., whilst the gentlemen's compartment is furnished with two wash basins, mirrors and points for electric razors.

Two further compartments aft have an aggregate capacity of 404 cu. ft., the foremost of the two being provided with a direct-loading hatch to starboard. Forward of the front spar station the whole of the upper deck is devoted to the control crew of two pilots, navigator, radio officer and flight engineer. Two stewards are allowed for, in addition to the five flight crew. The captain and first officer are seated at a conventional control layout similar to that of the Sunder land, and the navigator has a large chart table at which he sits facing to starboard; he is, of course, provided with a full com- plement of the most up-to-date navigational aids. The radio officer's station is modelled to surf* B.O.A.C.'s latest requirements, and has a seat position facing to port. Aft of the navigator and radio officer two rest berths are fitted to port, and a lavatory with wash basin to starboard. The engineer's station, as in the Sunderland, re- mains on the starboard side be- tween the wing spar frames, with a seat position facing aft. Mooring operations are con- ducted from a hatch in the extreme bow compartment. 7Z 7 65 70 THQus*ty>s or n i 700 40O 75
