Jones, c veteran who has logged more than 3.000,000 air miles, said the first trans-Atlantic flight made by British royalty would continue at 8 aan. The landing meant that the royal party arrival at Mont real, originally set for high noon, would be delayed some three hours. It also meant that Gander would go down in history as the site of the pretty princess’ first stop on her long-awaited tour of the dom inion.
