Abstract
THERE is now no doubt that every passible attempt will be made to utilise aviation for commercial purposes, and that one of the first questions to be settled is the choice of the best type of machine for such uses. While small machines of the “scout” type may be of considerable utility for the rapid transport of single passengers or small quantities of goods on special occasions, it seems certain that the representative type of the commercial aeroplane will be a large machine capable of carrying considerable loads.
