PILOTS' LICENSES
NEW TYPE NOW TSRTTED
BY DEFENCE DEPT. Pilots' licenses of a new type are now being issued by the Defence Department, civil aviation branch, to all pilots qualifying, in accordance with the provsions of the convention for the regulation of aerial navigation and the Air Navigation Act passed by Parliament last year. The new; licenses, the issue of which I has just begun, are somewhat larger booklets than the older type, and are bound in royal blue. Each eontains a certificate of competency as well as the actual license, and to both of these a portrait of the holder is attached. Provision is made for the renewal of the. licenses for 30 years. ! Applicants for licenses have hitherto been required to submit two pass-port-size portraits of themselves, one of which was pasted into the back of the license, and the other into the departmental records, but owing to the change in the form of the license, applicants must now forward three photographs, which must not be larger than three centimetres by two, with the head at least one centimetre.
