The Transport Crystal

Abstract

ONCE again the future of British civil transport aircraft is a topic of the moment. At the annual luncheon of the Air Registration Board both LORD BRABAZON and Mr G. R. EDWARDS spoke of the futility of trying in this country to produce a direct competitor for the large American jet transports—a view which we have voiced in the past. In the House of Commons the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation has recently been questioned about the deliberations of the Air Transport Advisory Committee, but it seems that no precise statement of policy is immediately forthcoming.
