The Norge in the Arctic

THE FLIGHT of the Italian semi-rigid airship Norge from Italy to Russia via England and Norway marks the commencement of what may prove one of the most notable and significant long distant airship flights ever undertaken. In successfully completing the European section of the flight, the airship has undoubtedly exhibited, to a certain extent, at least, her general airworthiness, although the flight across Europe offers minor complications and difficulties when compared with that section of the Amundsen-Ellsworth undertaking which is shortly to be commenced upon, namely, the flight into the Arctic and across the North Pole.
