ETIOPIA. 1930 (15-III). ADDIS to ROME. UNRECORDED FLIGHT. Franked by complete set air provisionals type 3, arrival cds on back. VERY RARE flight not listed in Muller and N. Cape. NOTE: No mail flight was recorded on that day, but Vicomte De Sibour, in his Gipsy Moth, flew during that time all over Ethiopia under permission of Regent Ras Tafari. It is possible that he had cancelled the letter in Addis, then flew to Eritrea were he handed it over to a pilot friend for delivery in Rome. It was customary then. (Image1)
