20 FLIGHT 23 APRIL 1954 *Hfc $> t-o, Cy »*L In the field of civil aviation, Britain is today well ahead. Thank the brilliant men who have designed, made and flown our great new aircraft for that. But thank as well Sweet Lucy, an unspectacular flier, for making sure that things stay that way. How ? Simply by flying to the start of an important race by BEA air freighter. Her fare (pity she doesn't know it) helps to take the world-beating airliners of the future off the drawing boards and into the workshops And helps the British airlines to send their experts, when they're wanted, to these workshops with practical help and advice. Of course, Sweet Lucy was only one among many. Last year alone BEA flew over 14,900 tons of freight and i\ million passengers. And the more there are this year the better it will be for British flying. * ft ^British keep British aircraft ahead fly BEA BRITISH EUROPEAN AIRWAYS
