England Promises Air Taxicab Developments LONDON, June 21.—There will be wonderful developments in England shortly in the service of air taxicabs. More than twenty landing grounds, or ■lr “garages," are now available throughout the country for journeys by aircraft, and a machine may be hired to carry a pilot and two passengers for $25 an hour. As the particular sort of aeroplane that is used for this purpose moves at an average rate of ninety miles an hour, It means that “super-taxi” transport through the air costs about 24 cents a mile. Improved aircars are nearing completion for hire. They will carry four passengers instead of two for the same expenditure of power and at the same rate of hiring. This will mean that individually. if a party of four hire a machine for a rapid Journey, the cost will come down to not more than 12 cents per mile. England Is promised an organization of the new “air cabs” throughout the country, a certain number being garaged, ready for instant hire, in each big city.
