 However, before it could be flown in Australia, the Government objected to the commercial use of ANZAC (the use of which remains restricted in Australian law today), and Kingsford Smith was forced to remove it.After finally getting the machine, now named "Lady Southern Cross", out of Customs, Kingsford Smith and copilot Patrick Gordon Taylor set several speed records flying between Australian cities as they prepared to fly to England for the race.With all paperwork finally complete, they began the flight to England on 29 September 1934, with a first leg planned to end in Darwin.
