London, Sept 1S.-The Air Min

all-metal troop-carrying aeroplanes.
These form the most important fea-
ture of the important all-metal trials
now going on. They are designed
for the transport of twenty-five
fully equipped soldiers, with a ma
chine gun and adequate supply of
ammunition.
Two of these machines are now
being built at Weybrdge. They
have not yet been submitted to a
complete series of experiments. and
until this is done no large orders
for their manufacture will be placed.
These machines are destined, pri-
marily, y for operation in tropical
parts of the British Empire, where
large areas have to be policed and
where the chief danger lies in the
sudden uprising of some isolated
tribe. The first of the crafts will be
tried in Mesopotamia, where the
Royal Air Force is to he given com

have, for the first time, its own in
