COMMERCIAL AER0NAUT|CS
 AFTER. THE WAR

light stations, which were proposed for every ten miles, was put at $1250 each, The trip would take only about three hours, instead of seven as at present by train and steamer.
 The machines proposed for this ser vlce would carry twelve passengers, and a charge of pounds (s25) pas- senger would be made. With four such machines operating to full capa- city, there would be an annual profit of $215,000 per year. With but nine passengers each way there would be no profit to the operation, and, of course, with fewer still, a substantial loss. Provision was to be made for to be charged at a rate of 1-2d Gone cenD per ounce, and with a full load amounting to 2OO0 pounds, there would be an annual profit of $30O,0O0 An aerial service to Marseilles of eight hours, instead of twenty three could be maintained with charge per passenger of 10 pounds ($50), and for mails Id per ounce, while for twen- ty-hour trip to Constantinople or Mos COW, 25 pounds (s125) for each rassen- ger and 21-2d G cents) per ounce for mail matter.
 Although the initial capital costs of commercial aeroplane communication might appear large, yet they are real ly small when compared with other means of communication. Thus for areoplane service over a hundred mile route, the initial capital cost would not exceed $3OO,0O0, whereas the av- craze capitalization for a single track railway over the same distance would amount to practically $5,000,00O, though of course the railway would carry vastly more traffic, both pas senger and freight, than the aero plane equipment.
 . It must be realized that aeroplanes never will compete with railways or road transport for heavy or bulky traffic, yet for passenger traffic and the transportation of mail or light packages, particularly where it is de- sired to save as much time as possi- ble, there certainly Is q field for com mercial aeronautics. The modern arcoplane can now fly in almost any weather, and. there are really few accidents that can be charged to in hercnt defects in the machines or to their operation under ordinary condi- tions of care and skill. Their speed, of course is nearly twice as great as that of express trains, and there is no reason why comfortable and com- 'nodious cabins cannot be Installed
 With the technical and natural prob fems solved there loom only the par ticular commercial questions, economy of operation, and maintenance, which must be met in this connecticut Rcview of Reviews.

The Nome daily nugget., 1917-09-08

The design, construction and opera ton of military aeroplanes do not even now, monopoliZe the attention of aeronautical designers and engineers. Considerable thought is already devot- ed to commercial developments that must follow the close of hostilties. This tendency, latterly, has been re- nected in the technical press of Flu rope, and recently a lecture by Mir. nautical Society of Great Britain, ab- stracted in Engineering London) dealt with this theme.
 1t is said to be well known through out Europe that Germany, in addition to keeping up it's military strength of aeroplanes is contemplating exten- sive aerial service between that em- pIre and Austra, Bulgaria, and Fur key, as well as more extended air routes throughout the world, as a means of building up the German en- pire anew. Naturally the European war brought numerous and striking developments in thesdesign and whole sale construction of aeroplanes and their motors, while a vast number of skilled pilots and mechanicians have been trained As a result in Great Britain and France also, commercial possibilities now are being consid- cred far more seriously, though it is realized frankly that commercial con- ditions will prove vastly different both as regards machines and their opera ton, and that for the near future the problems arising are likely to prove special rather than general.
 There have been developed for. the battlefield, and for defense and obser- vation, various types of aeroplanes with different weight carrying capa- cities and speeds, which seem to sug- gest corresponding range in com mercial service such as mail, parcel and passenger transportation.
 From the extensive experiences and records of aeroplanes in the different military service the running costs in air for aeroplanes of three leading types computed on the basis of machines averaging 100 miles per hour may be stated, as follows:
 A-Carrying useful load, 1,SOO pounds, including petrol and fuel 6 -2d. QS cents) per m1le.
 B-Carrying 1000 pounds, 5d OO cents) per mile.
 C-Carrying 45O Opounds 21-2d, G ccnts) per mile.
 Or this basis there have been com puted the costs of regular areoplane service between London and Paris at an average speed of eighty, miles per hour, which for useful load of 25OO pounds exclusive of gasoline, oil, and pilot for the 300 miles of the journey is stated at As Sd G.16) per mile. The original cost of an aeroplane designed for this service was given at about $l2,500, while the annual expense of maintaining simple landing and search -
