THE RIGHT TO FLY.
THE INTERNATIONAL ASPECT. ‘Has every man a right to fly if he can, and, if so, where?” asks the “Morning Post.’ ’ “There are questions with which at no distant date the lawyers will have to deal, for until some answer has- been given to them it will not be easy to answer the perhaps harder question whether a foreigner lias a right to fly into the air above Great Britain, or a British subject to fly into the air above a foreign country. The fact that no less than eleven aeronauts on Monday flpw from Calais across the Channel and landed in this country, and that seven of them continued the aerial journey as far as Hendon, .is a remarkable proof of tlie advance in the art of flying and of the science, of constructing flying machines. The law of all countries will’ therefore soon have to begin adapting itself to. the new conditions of movement.”
