The advent of the jet transport age both for commercial and military aircraft will require conversion to jet training for pilots of all types of transport aircraft. This is the time therefore when consideration ought to be given to some comprehensive scheme on an Empire-wide basis for future recruitment and training of Pilots to a common standard.
It is not enough to assume that the needs of commercial aviation will be supplied by the Royal Air Force. There are two sound reasons why reliance on such a flow will prove erroneous. Firstly the training of the R.A.F. Transport and Bomber pilot is much akin to the requirement for the commercial airline, and once Air Forces have trained their long distance pilots they will make a career sufficiently attractive to induce the pilot to stay. Transport Command of the R.A.F. has already inaugurated such a scheme.
