I expect by the end of this month to have taught about thirty men to fly, that is to have sent them off by themselves in a machine. We are getting a great number of Americans from New York who come over and enlist in the R.F.C., and we find that they are a better class of men than the U.S. Army men whom we had here.

are getting lots of flying. I have now spent over 100 hours actual time in the air. I expect by the end of this month to have taught about thirty men to fly, that is to have sent them off by themselves in a machine. We are getting a great number of Americans from New York who come over and enlist in the R.F.C., and we find that they are a better class of men than the U.S. Army men whom we had here.

I think I have no more news for this time so good-bye for the present with much love, as ever

Your affectionate son Haworth.
