Self-wraps, 6pp foolscap. Good with closed tears, some foxing and marks, minor loss, some staining and archival tape reinforcement to lower edges. The Advisory Committee chaired by Lord Weir (late Secretary of State for the RAF) was created to report to Churchill on how best to organise imperial air routes. In this report, it recommends developing the route from Egypt to India first (eventually this would connect on to Australia) and the route to South Africa via Egypt next. This should be led by private business with state support. The GPO should tender out for the corresponding airmail service. The RAF can place surplus engines and other materials at the disposal of the Civil Aviation Department for free distribution. Prohibitions on civil aviation in Egypt and India should be lifted.

Shipping terms
SHIPPING: Domestic and international shipping is tracked and insured with UPS. This has unfortunately meant an increase in domestic rates especially, and in most cases I am absorbing some of the increase. (I have moved away from Royal Mail owing to a series of problems).
DELIVERY DEADLINES: If you have a hard deadline for receipt that is before the processing time stated on Abe, eg, if you need it to arrive urgently before you travel or before a particular event, please contact me at the time of order to advise, so options can be discussed and steps taken to ensure it gets there in time.
RETURNS: Please return any items for refund within 30 days of the estimated delivery date, and contact me first with the reason for the return to establish whether postal costs will be included in the refund. If the item is not as described, I will cover the original and return post.
