Cox, R.N.A.S-, who has qualified at the Chlngford Aerodrome. Copyright, F. N. Birkett, from the F.N.B. Stria of Aviators. Flight Sub-Lieut. W. D. Wain, R.N.A.S., who has recently qualified at the G. W. School. Above we reproduce two portraits of pilots who have recently taken their tickets. By an unfortunate confusion by the photographer these have appeared in Flight with the names reversed—the one on June nth and the other on July 2nd. They should have had the names under them respectively as they now are given, and this repetition of the photos, will no doubt prevent any future misconception. 515
