The S.B.A.C. informs us that unless any unexpected official ban is imposed at short notice, there will be no restrictions on the normal use of cameras by the public. Farnborough can be reached by road via the routes shown on the accompanying map. As in past years, the railways and bus companies will run extra services in the area, information on which can be obtained at transport inquiry offices. Visitors by air cannot be accommodated at Farnborough itself; the nearest convenient airfield is Blackbushe, whence a shuttle-service of motor coaches, for holders of trade badges, will operate from the Tuesday to the Friday. Above is a map showing the road approaches to Farnborough; in the neighbourhood of the airfield traffic must move as directed by the police, in the diagram below the layout of the enclosures is shown. A floor-plan of the exhibition hall—housing the "static" show—appears on page 326. N PILOTS' MECHANICS TINT TENT EXHIB1TO RESTAURANT ft LOUNGE
