DESOUTTER, Managing Director of the Desoutter Aircraft Co., Ltd. "21 years of flying ! What a long time this seems to those early enthusiasts who made aviation possible, and what happy memories it brings of the early days of flying at Hendon . and Brooklands.

" Will you permit one who has taken FLIGHT from the very first number to the present time to congratulate your paper on reaching its 21st anniversary ?

" The attainment of manhood by an individual is always an important event in his life, and in the present instance, completion of twenty-one years of publication marks an epoque in the development of aviation, for FLIGHT has, during this period, been able to record the growth of an industry from the experimental aircraft constructed by enthusiasts to a world-wide activity, inclusive of transport undertakings that fill an entirely new field for the quick transport of passengers, goods and mail. "" —' - "I take particular interest in the fact that FLIGHT will attain its majority this year, for on * -• June 17 of this year also—1930—Handley-Page, Limited, will celebrate the twenty-first anniversary of its registration as a limited company, it having been registered on June 17, 1909. ; " I have not the slightest doubt that in the coming years FLIGHT will continue to maintain the - same high standard of publication and interest to its readers that has made it so attractive .;; to everyone connected with aviation in the past, and express the hope that we may live to cele- 31 brate the fiftieth anniversary of both FLIGHT and our company." ..... „. 21
