SLEEPER TRANSPORT: The interior accomodation of (left) the Douglas Sleeper Transport and (right) the D.C.3., which is the daytime flying version. Sixteen passengers are carried in the D.S.T., with four bunks in each of four compartments. At the rear are two furnished dressing-rooms, while aft of the control cabin is a steward's galley.

MODERN TRAINING: These four Hawk Trainers, which have been specially designed for aerobatics and inverted flying, were delivered by air last week to the Roumanian Government. These are the first British low-wing trainers to be sold abroad.

NOT A SILENCER, but the smoke-box under one of the two Hawk Majors which Major J. C. Savage added to his sky-writing fleet a year ago, and which have given good service. The smoke-producing chemical is fed to the box from a supply tank, and the engine exhaust gases cause the necessary reaction.

Giving them the low-down: This is what the "savages " in the low attack event see during the initial dive of No. 32 (F.) Squadron. But this is nothing compared with what they are shown after the machines break formation and approach the question from every angle.

A.C. - 1936. Here is our very latest army co-operation machine - a Westland - with Handley Page slots and flaps. The engine in the prototype is a Bristol Mercury for which controllable cooling is specified. The cabin is heated and the enclosures are easily opened. Performance figures may not be given, but the span and length are, respectively, 50ft. and 30ft. The A39/34 as the machine is known temporarily, will be at Hendon on Saturday.

OPTIMISTIC NOMENCLATURE. This is what Mr. Gerard P. Herrick, its American inventor, terms a Vertiplane. The upper rotating wing is 20ft. in span and the lower one measures 25ft. The engine is a 125 h.p. Kinner. It seems that the machine has done extensive test-flying.

Here, in all the glory of its ''gadgets,'' is the latest single-seater day-and-night fighter to be adopted by the R.A.F. The machine is the Gloster Gladiator, fitted with the 720/840 h.p. Bristol Mercury IX engine. The pilot, in his enclosed and heated cockpit, is wearing his oxygen mask which, in a machine of this description having a service ceiling of 35,500 ft., is an item of major importance. Observe the mounting of the four guns and the undercarriage - the cleanest of its type yet produced.

Mr. Lucas brings the first of the new 690 h.p. Hispano-Suiza-engined Spanish Furies close alongside "MR," flown by Mr. Hindmarsh and carrying our photographer. The radiator is further aft along the fuselage than on the Rolls-Royce-engined Furies in the R.A.F. The simplicity of the cantilever undercarriage with its Dowty internally sprung wheels is also apparent.

CLOVER IN THE CLOUDS: The trefoil pattern made by the three Gloster Gauntlets of No. 19 (F.) Squadron as they make their almost literally breath-taking manoeuvres in unison at the R.A.F. Display on June 27 will be watched by thousands. In this Flight photograph - the first aerial picture of this remarkable performance by the Gauntlets - we are shown the linked trio at close quarters.

From the ground, spectators see the "flight aerobatics" event, to be given at the R.A.F. Display by Gauntlets of No. 19 (F.) Squadron as an example of perfect team work, entailing seemingly superhuman co-ordination of speed and manoeuvring. From the air, flying near at hand as did Flight's chief photographer when he secured this fine impression of the machines starting a loop, a new angle of appreciation is obtainable.

THE SAME - BUT DIFFERENT. The version of the Blackburn Shark T.S.R. to be flown at the Hatfield Display on Monday, will differ somewhat from that now in service with the Fleet Air Arm. The engine is a 600 h.p. Pegasus III and cockpit enclosures are incorporated - and very neatly too, judging from this photograph.

MEDITERRANEAN MEDLEY. Two Supermarine Seagull Vs, three Fairey III Fs, and four Hawker Ospreys, all catapulted from ships of the Mediterranean Fleet, in the act of assuming a line abreast formation over Alexandria. The official name of the Seagull V, when used by the Fleet Air Arm, is Walrus; the original title for it is retained by Australia.

ANOTHER WELCOME MAMMAL: According to the dictionary the walrus is allied to the seals but forms a distinct family. In the Fleet Air Arm the Supermarine Walrus amphibian has been adopted for catapult duty a function hitherto fulfilled largely by the Fairey Seal floatplane. The Hawker Osprey is also widely used. This particular Walrus is shown leaving H.M.A.S. "Sydney" which, like the "Australia" and "Nelson" now carries one of these versatile machines as standard equipment.

THE "OSTMARK" IN ACTION: By now the new D.L.H. catapult ship Ostmark, some plans for which were detailed in Flight of May 7, should be at Bathurst. During the week-end she made a trial trip in the Gulf of Lubeck. This picture shows a Dornier Do.18 (two 500/560 Junkers Jumo 205 diesels) being hoisted aboard.

THE FIRST SYMBOL. The "T" in "T.S.R." stands for "torpedo," "S" and "R" for "spotter" and "reconnaissance" respectively. Within the T.S.R. category comes the Fairey Swordfish (Pegasus III) seen here over Martlesham complete with "tin fish."

INTELLIGENT ANTICIPATION? Bearing an odd resemblance, at least as far as the hull design is concerned, to the new Empire flying boats, this "flying machine of the future" was visualised in 1907 by Mr. George L. O. Davidson, of Colorado and Scotland, who (according to the original prospectus, sent by a reader) floated a company for aircraft manufacture in that year. His forecast was "weight, 100 tons; speed, Chicago to New York in 3 hours; capacity, 100 passengers at, say, 10 dollars each per journey."
