LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,

Our lecturer today is too well known to all of you to need any introduction from me” MR HAFNER is a member of the Council of our Association, a member of the Helicopter Committee of the Aeronautical Research Council and Chief Designer, Helicopter Division, of the Bristol Aeroplane Co Ltd

Since he talked to a joint meeting of the S L A E and our Association in April, 1946, the Bristol Helicopter 171 has successfully flown and is now accumulating flying time at a rapid pace I am sure we shall all watch the progress of the 171 with very great interest, particularly as it would appear to have possibilities of being the first British helicopter to go into production

On behalf of the Association I extend a cordial welcome to all our guests
