Fitted with the French Gnome-Rhone Mistral Major fourteen-cylinder radial of 870 h.p., this Belgian Renard R-32 observation monoplane - which also functions at will as a two-seater fighter or light bomber - has a maximum speed of 230 m.p.h at 13,120 ft. It stalls at 59 m.p.h., has a service ceiling of over 37,000 feet and a range of 800 miles. Its somewhat peculiar wing is said to show interesting characteristics on climb and during a landing: the machine will reach 16,400 ft. in 7 minutes. A notable feature is the cockpit enclosure.

It achieves something like 200 m.p.h. The top wing has no sweepback (the installation of the Dagger moved the C.G. forward) and a cut-away gunner's position is incorporated.

RESERVE TRAINING IN SCOTLAND: The photograph shows a line-up of D.H. Tiger Moths outside the new Reserve School which, established by Scottish Aviation Ltd., at Prestwick, near Ayr, started flying operations last Monday. The hangar accommodates twenty-five machines, and the administrative block contains lecture rooms, armament and photographic sections, parachute room and instructors' and pupils' quarters. The directors of the company are Mr. W. E. Nixon, Lord G. N. Douglas-Hamilton, Flt. Lt. D. F. McIntyre (who served as second pilot on the Everest expedition, and who is chief instructor) and Messrs. R. L. Angus and T. P. Mills. Eight flying instructors and a ground instructor are engaged.

Comfort and good view in all essential directions are features of the 1936 Hornet Moth, which, with side-by-side seating is equally suitable for touring and tuition. With a 130 h.p. Gipsy Major engine, the maximum speed is about 124 m.p.h. and the cruising speed 103-108 m.p.h., according to the degree of throttling.

IMPERIAL LUXURY: The after cabin of one of the new Short "Empire" flying boats, seen from the promenade cabin. For night work, bunks will be rigged above the luxurious seats - which, it will be noted, are provided with adjusting levers to set the backs to any desired angle. By day the boat will carry 24 passengers, and 16 by night - which suggests even more intricate booking problems for the Imperial Airways traffic staff. This photograph, of course, is not of the interior of an actual boat, but of the careful "mock-up" which serves as a guide to the fitting-out of the finished article.

SPIN-STOPPING BY PARACHUTE: Mr. F. G. Miles has evolved a scheme, not yet tested in actual flight, for stopping a flat spin during the flight-testing of new aircraft by releasing a small parachute anchored to the tail of the machine. In this picture the parachute is being fitted on a Nighthawk.

PERSONALITIES AND PETROL AT GRAVESEND: The aeroplane in this photograph, seen standing in front of the big hangar (erected by A. and A. J. Law, Ltd.) at Gravesend Airport, is the metal Moth which Miss Jean Batten flew to Australia, and which now belongs tor Mr. Michael Sassoon, who keeps it at Gravesend. It is being refuelled from a T.B. 250-gallon portable unit which Airworthiness, Ltd., have found " to prove worth its weight in gold." In the left foreground are Mr. Garnon, the local Esso representative and Mr. H. C. Brown, manager of Airworthiness Ltd. The Airworthiness workshops are stated to be very busy, while the students of the Company's engineering school are now designing an aeroplane of their own.
