"PEACEFUL PENETRATION": One of the latest Junkers type F.13 monoplanes has been registered in this country, and is now on a tour. Of the same general type as the famous "Bremen," this machine has a Junkers L.5 engine and seating accommodation for four passengers. It is intended for use by the wealthier class of private owner, or for air taxi work.

NEW ALL-METAL TRAINING MACHINE: After undergoing tests at Martlesham, the new Avro "Trainer" has now gone into production, and a batch of machines is being built. Several have also been ordered for use in the Dominions and abroad, some for air survey work. The machine can be fitted with the Armstrong-Siddeley "Mongoose" engine (standard) or with the "Lynx" for special purposes, such as operating from aerodromes situated at a considerable altitude. A detailed description will be published next week.

THE FLYING TEST: Last week we showed this Moth, and through a printer's error it was called the property of W. B. Rich. It does, of course, belong to W. B. Dick, the makers of the well-known "Ilo" brand lubricating oils, and their Moth is being used as a "test shop" for the mineral oil which is advised as being the most suitable for all such machines.
