Abstract
THERE have been many happenings lately that have tended to focus attention upon the subject of the facilities that should be provided in the postwar future to obtain training for the various branches of the profession of aeronautics. The applied side of this science, the design, construction, and maintenance of both fighting service and civil aircraft and engines, the handling of air transport services, and the host of auxiliaries called into being by these, will need a great deal of pioneer work, based on original thinking, for its organization. The advances in the technical outlook made during this War, together with the problems inseparable from the great increase in the size of the industry, compared with its pre-war dimensions, bring into much prominence the question of training the personnel for the profession.
