MARCH 1950 FLIGHT AN OPENING EXISTS FOR A JET AIRLINER It is common knowledge that refuelling in flight has triumphed over the limitations of range and endurance for all current types of aircraft—jet fighters as well as piston-engined airliners and long-range bombers. The most spectacular instances of this triumph were last year's non-stop flight round the world by a Boeing B-50 of the United States Air Force, and the refuelling of a Meteor jet fighter which remained airborne for twelve hours. En-route fuelling has proved itself a fully practicable proposition on day and night airline schedules. The Flight Refuelling Service has all the experience and equipment necessary to ensure safe and efficient operation with the fastest jet airliners.
