The first two sections gave power to the Secretary of State to prohibit the navigation of aircraft over prohibited areas, and to inflict penalties for offences. The list of proâ€" hibited areas included railway centres, dockyards, farms, churches, piers, forts, etc. This law, however, Fritz seems to have taken pleasure in vioâ€" lating. ’ Fantasticâ€"though some of the readâ€" ing may seem, Lord Montagu of ‘Beaulieu‘s book, "The World‘s Air Routes and their Regulation," is a fascinating study, and one where sound common sense and practicabilâ€" ity have not been swamped by the imâ€" lu(imtion. 1899, and which decided that "only warfare could reveal the abuses to which the airplane could be put."
