"Sometimes, something happens, which should not have happened. Without beating around the brush, I must admit that I have forgotten from where I have taken this information, and now I am unable to find any supporting evidence to my claim. But one thing is definite that I have quoted this service, only when I have seen something in writing".

First, we should discuss, whether such service could have existed or not. In my opinion, this Express Inland air Service should have existed on and from 15th September 1948, because on this day a new AIR LETTER service was introduced for fast transmission with reduced weight. If a fight weight Air Letter will cost 2 annas (logical bifurcation is 1 anna + 1 anna Air Fee), an Express Air Mail Service post Cards may cost 1? annas (? a + 1 a) and for Envelopes may cost 3? annas (1? as. + 2 as). One should remember Air Fee for Envelope is double than Post Cards since 1st February 1938 when Air Fee on Post Cards was reduced to ? anna (6 pies) from 9 pies and 1 anna Air Fee remained for Envelope.

Now the question arise, if such Express air Service was there, examples should have existed. In my opinion, examples on Envelopes have mixed up with Express Delivery Service because the surcharge in both services was same, i.e. 2 annas. And this Express Inland Air Service was very short-lived i.e. 6? months because Air Surcharge was abolished on and from 1st April 1949.
