"One phase of the development OF

is not often given attention is the de-
velopment Of civil aviation. BY civil
aviation is meant the operation of
aircraft by civilians for gain or for
pleasure. The operators OF such air
craft were usually known as gypsy
flyers but in the last few years the
gypsy has been developing into
f1xed-base operator. At the present
time there are % schools in operation
end their flying fields are scattered
from coast to coast. The fixed base
end the school have provided the in
centive for the gypsy flyer to keep
his aircraft in better condition, and
have placed him in a more stable and
responsible financial position. In no
other country in the world are there
as large a number Of civilian opera

operations are not subSidized-it is

Performance Is Better.
Technical progress in aeronautics
in the United States since the war has
been most satisfactory This progress
fIas been made possible by substantial
appropriations by Congress, and today
it can be safely said that we have in
this country aviation engines from so
horsepower to 500 horsepower that
are the equal Of, or better than, en-
gines produced by any other country.
The performance of aircraft built for
military purposes is not eXcelled in
any other country. and in certain
types. such as pursuit airplanes and
observation airplanes, the perform
ance of the airplanes built in this
country far surpasses the perform
ance of similar airplanes of any other
country. a
Air records for performance are
not necessarily indicative of general
progress. but do. in measure, reflect
the technical development that has
been made over a number of years.
