FNGLISH AIRCRAFT SHIPS SOON READY Hig Vessels made to carry 20 Planes London--Two new English naval aircraftcarriers of a completely novel design shortly are to be placed in commission with the British fleet. One of these ships was specially designed by the British Admiralty and is claimed to be the biggest ship of its kind in the world, embodying all the latest landing and launching im- provements. The unusual feature of these two vessels, hitherto not employed in British aircraft carriers, is that the funnels, mast and superstructure are not in the center, hut on the starboard side, amidships, thus leaving ample flying-off and alighting space. The largest of the two, the Eagle, is of 26,200 tons displacement and is fit- ted with two hangars, which will ac- comodate more than twenty aero- planes, which will be raised to the flying-off deck by electric elevators. Although at the time she was laid down the demand was all for size in this type of ship experts now say that the extreme vulnerability of .the flying decks makes it very questionable whether the gigantic carriers are not a mistake, and it is expected that anv further new ships of this type will be on a smaller scale.
