The Fairey-Napier III.D at Work: The photograph herewith depicts one of the Fairey III.D seaplanes fitted with a 450 h.p. Napier "Lion," of the R.A.F., carrying out duties at Malta. This type of machine is used with very satisfactory results in all parts of the world. Recently one of these machines was stationed at Hong Kong for five months, during which time there was not a single engine failure or forced landing. On another occasion in the Dardanelles area one of these seaplanes carried out a continuous flight of 500 3/4 miles in 6 3/4 hours, with a load of over 2 1/4 tons, when the petrol consumption was only 15 1/4 gals, per hour. It was for this type of machine that the Dutch Government placed a large order with the Fairey Aviation Co., as previously reported in "Flight."

A RECORD BREAKER: Two views, from another aeroplane, of the Koolhoven F.K.31, with Bristol "Jupiter" engine. A machine of this type, built in France by the de Monge-Buscaylet firm under licence, recently established three world's speed records over 100 kms., 200 kms., and 500 kms., carrying a useful load of 500 kgs.

AN AIRDISCO "AVRO": This machine, an Avro 504, is fitted with the new Airdisco engine of 120 h.p. The "Cirrus" engine is developed from this engine, being in effect one-half of it, cylinders and pistons being interchangeable. The Avro-Airdisco should be a very useful training machine of the medium-power type.
