The Europa Rundflug: A Review of the Machines Entered and of the Technical Aspect of the Competition

Abstract

THE Europa Rundflug, which took place this year for the third time, is a contest for light aeroplanes with a limit to tare weight of 480 kg. (881 lb.). The competition was instituted five years ago by the Aéro Club de France, with the object of improving the breed of light touring‐type aeroplanes. To this end the competition includes an evaluation of the technical qualities of the aircraft by tests and examination, and a cross‐country flight.
