It is interesting that despite the New Zealand Permanent Air Force being renamed the Royal New Zealand Air Force till the 6th of March 1934, the Waikato Times used the new name two years earlier. With that sort of forethought, the reporter must have been from Cambridge.

WAIKATO TIMES, 22 JUNE 1932
