RESETTLEMENT THERE are many officers and men of the. R.A.F. who are demobilised or are about to be demobilised. In order to assist those who are undecided or are seeking advice as to their prospects in civil life, the Editor has arranged for an expert, with wide experience of service, industrial and educational conditions, to give advice to those who may solicit it through the medium of this Journal. Applications, which must be in writing, should be marked Resettlement, and addressed to the Editor, FLIGHT, 36, Great Queen Street, Kingsway, W.C. 2. They will be dealt with in these columns, as far as possible, in rotation. K.G.V., LIEUT. R.A.F.—The R.Ae.C. certificate was usually obtained during the period when graduating for " wings." If you have not yet obtained this certificate, you should communicate with the Secretary, Royal Aero Club, 3, Clifford Street, London, W. As you are an R.A.F. pilot, and have been passed by the Medical Board " fit to fly passenger and goods aircraft," you can obtain a licence to fly civilian aircraft (see Air Navigation Regulations). P.H.G., Ex-R.N.A.S.—In view of the large number of experienced pilots at present available for civilian aviation, and having regard to the few that will be required in the immediate future, we fear that you will experience great difficulty in obtaining employment as a civilian pilot. We can only suggest that you resume the occupation for which you have been trained or make application for a course of aeronautical engineering at a recognised college or university. J.B., Ex-R.A.F.—For financial aid to enable one to resume studies which have been interrupted by War service, applica tion should be made to the Appointments Department, Ministry of Labour. T.H.P.—If you are already demobilised you should address your query with regard to the honorary commission to the Secretary, Air Ministry, Strand. Give full particulars, with dates, of your service, when appointed a cadet and what training you received. Messrs. Cox and Co., Charing Cross, can furnish you with full particulars in connection with any kit allowance to which you may be entitled. If you are not demobilised, your demobilising officer should be able to give you the information you seek. • B K B IMPORTS AND EXPORTS, 1918-1919.
