FLIGHT, 20 July 1950 The Balliol Ta has been selected as the new stan- dard advanced trainer for the Royal Air Force following competitive Service trials extending over twelve months. In the course of these trials, the Balliol has been thoroughly tested under tropical conditions and has proved it- self as suitable for operation in the tropics as in more temperate climates. With its service ceiling of 32,500 feet, the Balliol T.z maintains a rate of climb of over 2,000 feet per minute to a height of 11,500 feet above sea level, and can thus be operated without difficulty from high altitude aerodromes. At 8,000 feet, its take-off distance to clear a 50-ft. screen does not exceed 640 yards. \, " \ ; ' i BOULTON PAUL AIRCRAFT LTD WOLVERHAMPTON
