ICE BOUND: In the upper left-hand picture is the petrol vent pipe, and on, the right the pitot head. The broken steadying tube is shown in the lower left-hand photograph, while on the right is the ice coated centre-section and its struts and wires.
Upper left: This remarkable picture was secured by Flight's chief photographer, who went "ice-hunting" in a Hawker Hart piloted by Flt. Lt. Bulman. It shows ice that has formed on the fuel tank vent pipe
Lower left: The ice-collecting expedition was continued until the steadying tube between two of the wires fractured, due to vibration caused by the heavy accretion on the wires.Самолёты на фотографии: Hawker Hart - Великобритания - 1928

SERVICE MOUNTAINEERING: Part of the work covered by No. 30 Bomber Squadron, stationed at Mosul, in Northern Iraq, is to patrol the mountains of Kurdistan, on the borders of Iraq and Turkey and Persia. This is an extremely hazardous flight and is carried out weekly. The patrol lies over mountainous country where for more than an hour engine failure or any other cause of a forced landing would mean a certain crash. This picture was taken during an actual reconnaissance patrol made by three "Wapitis" of the No. 30 Bomber Squadron over the mountains of Kurdistan, in Northern Iraq.

Tomkins (right), one of the firm's test pilots, who is in charge at the aerodrome.
