London,—Cairo and Cape Town, rep- resenting the extremes of the African continent, have at last been linked up by an alr service. The British air min- fstry has announced that the air route * over which engineers have spent long months of labor wmidst great difficul- ties is finally ready for traflic. This means that “the time heretofore re- quired to traverse the continent—from ten to twelve wecks—has now been cut down to about one week and that therefore secluded sectlons of Africa will be opened to the world. . The total dlstance by the old meth- ods of communication is 6,223 miles, for which from fifty-nine to seventy- five days would be required. Against this, the air ministry points out, the total flylng ~distance of the aerial route should not exceed 5,200 miles. Taking 100 miles an hour as a falr mverage flylng speed under favorable conditions and when the route has been frmly established, only fifty-two hours’ actual flying time would be required to cover the distance, or about a week, fiying eight hours a day.
