St Leon’s Circus Arrives to Thrill Kalgoorlie Crowd
The St Leon’s Circus from the East drew a large crowd last night in Kalgoorlie. Mervyn King and young Margaret Egan wowed on ponies and trapeze while Trilby, Maudie, and the mule showed surprising agility. Acrobats from the Weston duo and the Flying Windskills impressed, with lions and tigers performing under Captain Eric Flyger’s cue. The show, praised as one of Australia’s best, will visit Toodyay on Monday next.

Weighing an Air Liner For Safe Passenger Flights
The article explains how airliners use a fixed maximum weight certificate, approved by the Air Ministry and operators, posted inside the door to prevent overloading. Before a journey, the aircraft itself must be weighed to determine disposable load, with detailed precautions by Shell and British Imperial Airways.

Weighing System For Aircraft Payload Calculation
A platform scale supports the aircraft wheels while a smaller rail scale bears the rear skid, arranged to handle varying fuselage lengths. The aircraft weighs all contents except passengers freight and crew, allowing payload capacity to be derived by subtracting this test weight from the maximum permissible weight.
