96 REPORT OF THE No. 3 



Loading of Moth Aircraft: 



It is noteworthy that although the Moth is a comparatively small machine, 

 and of low horsepower as a type, it gave an excellent account of itself during the 

 season's operations. 



The following percentages would seem to support this opinion: 



Proportion of fleet consisting of Moths 54 per cent. 



Proportion of fleet horsepower in Moths 23 per cent. 



Proportion of fleet total load in Moths 25 per cent. 



Proportion of fleet total mileage in Moths 59 percent. 



Under Table IV will be found detail of all flying done under the various 

 classifications, both for the current season, and also for the past eight years. 

 This gives an excellent means of comparing various types of flying season by 

 season. It will be seen that 1932 might well be considered an average season, in 

 that no abnormal hours have been concentrated in classifications other than where 

 they should be. The percentage column therefore gives a sound idea of the 

 relation each type of flying has to the total.
