Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Glossary of Aviation Terms, Termes D'aviation: English French, Francais-Anglais
As there are numerous young men training in this country, both in ground schools and at ?ying fields for the aviation service, and as much of this will probably be performed in France, it seems desirable to compile a brief glossary of commonly used aviation terms in both French and English to facilitate intercourse between the pilots and mechanics speaking different languages who work together in the present emergency.
These lists are enlarged from a briefer series prepared originally for use in teaching classes at the Signal Corps Aviation School, Mineola, L. I. The illustrations aecom panying the text should make everything clear about which any doubt could exist. As no definitions are given, the booklet is more in the nature of a glossary or list of words than a dictionary, and is intended only for use of those already familiar with aviation. Some of the equivalents may not be literally correct, but are selected with a view to listing only terms in common, everyday usage.
