Extract

Having been asked to recount a brief history of the origin and conception of the Aeronautical Technical School Movement, I wish to pay the highest tribute to the philosophy, example, logical methods and encouragement of those men from whom I had the good fortune to receive my own training and under whom I was privileged to serve. Their sterling qualities were co-ordinated and embodied in the establishment of the first Civil Aeronautical Technical School and have led to the achievements of countless of its pupils.

The basic principles of the School have remained unaltered but they have been adapted and amplified, with success, to meet the requirements of subject, numbers, nationality, language, character, creed and environment, for a variety of projects for Governments and Industry, involving the training of individuals and small classes up to many thousands of trainees—maximum results in the minimum of time being the objective.
