I-1 A NEW road-air freight service
between London and Lille was inaugurated last week by Silver City Airways. As most loads are expected to originate in France, there are three journeys into London each week, compared with two outward flights. Departures from Silver City's freight depot at Chelsea Bridge are made on Mondays and Thursdays, with arrivals in France on Fridays and Mondays.
Minimum charge for consignments is £5, and rates range from 8d. per kilo for the first 250 kilos, to £18 per 1,000 kilos for loads over 5,000 kilos.
