Beatty, the American aviator, who has estab lisbed a school o f aviation at the well known Hendon aerodrome. At the outbreak o f hostilities the aerodrome underwent a complete meta morphosis. The exhibition flights were abandoned and the place completely taken over by the British government —aeroplane, hangar and aerodrome.

Pnoto by American Press Association. with which he had hoped to cross the Atlantic, was appointed commander o f tbe aerodrome, while Claude Grahame- White was given a commission as Sight lieutenant in the Davy. The whole scene at Hendon was al tered. Instead o f walking about In ci\ iliun attire men were now to be seen in the uniform o f the British navy, while a detachment of marines formed an encampment on the fringe of the great inclosure and carried out the du ties o f safeguarding the numerous aeroplanes and their hangars. As has been the case in so many other depart ments o f the state, a complete change took place in the appearance o f this most important adjunct o f British de fenses. and thus it came about that George Beatty came upon his great opportunity. Grahame-White, finding it was nee essary to devote his first attention to the training o f pupils for the navy di rect, had to look elsewhere for a school where lay pupils could complete their flying apprenticeship. No better man eould have been found than Beatty to take over this surplus from the Gra hame-Whlte school, and the aspirants were duly transferred to the Beatty school. Mr. Beatty was equal to the occasion and quite In his element. He at once took these students in hand and gave them some good practice on the biplane, a machine with two pro pel (era. The dual control o f this type o f ma chine renders the tuition o f pupils ex cepdonally rapid and thorough. Each leason occupies about fifteen minutes, and the student o f aviation sits side by aide with his tutor, keenly observing his every move. The various evolu tions In the manipulation o f tbe ma chine are thus actually felt, as each movement by tbe pilot is accompanied by a corresponding motion on the pu ptl’a aide o f the biplane, becomes trans ferred and hence necessarily enables the pupil to be In sensitive touch with the motional changes directed by bis msater. Again, the explanations and Instruc tions are more readily conveyed than In the case o f the average biplane, where yon do not get In close proxlml ty. as the pupil and teacher do not sit side by side. Practice proceeds In winds np to twenty miles an hour Mr. Beatty does not believe in giving hts students experiences on the biplane only. He alao utilises the monoplane fo r intermediate trials.
