New Sky Monsters Will Swallow Ancient Village
A FAIRY STORY that could have come from the pages of a child’s book is coming true—a village
that has weathered the storms of centuries is dying near Bristol, England: a cradle for air giants is grow
ing in its place. Pictured top is the cradle—a model of the 87,000.000 hangar that will be used for the
assembly and tests of the 110-ton Brabazons, British eight-engined sky monsters being built to whisk
100 passengers between London and New York. Named Assembly Hall by the Bristol Aeroplane Com
any, a push of a button will open its motor-operated, aluminum doors and admit to its nearly 8 acres
of thermostat-controlled, scientifically planned and lighted space. The building adjoining (right of pic
ture) will be the administration block, including staff restaurants among its amenities for the British
workers. Pictured bottom is the village of Charlton, the farms and cottages of which will have to come
down to enable a second runway for the Brabazons to be built.
