In commercial application, airplane large or small, has comparatively short range; use in transoceanic flight is unsafe and should be discouraged; provided intermediate stops at suitable intervals are available for refueling, large flying boat has possibilities in overseas service; large rigid airship will always be supreme in long-distance heavy-cargo transport; it is most neglected yet most promising mode of transportation overseas extant. Abstract of paper read before Am. Soc. Mech. Engrs. (see also Automotive Industries, vol. 59, no. 12, Sept. 22, 1928, pp. 416-417)
