U.S.A. PRIVATE AVIATORS (to end of 1911)

(The number against any name is, unle otherwise stated, the Ae. C. America pilot certificate number. Only a few American aviators have bothered to obtain the Ae. Certificate. America produces a large number of aviators who fly for pleasure or exhibitions only and have not gone into competitions under International Rules. These consequently do not bother about certificates; but most of those recorded could easily obtain them, if they cared to try.) Adams, Clarence Adams, A. S. (215) Alvarez, F.
