The Chairman, in opening the meeting, said he was very glad indeed to see so many members present at the first meeting of the new Session, especially as, some of them had, no doubt, been up half the previous night watching the television programme (to hear the election results)

It was a pleasure to welcome tonight’s lecturer, Mr Newberry, who, since 1951, had been in charge of the rotorcraft work within the Directorate of Engine Research and Development at the Ministry of Supply Mr Newbery had obtained his B Sc degree in 1932 at London University with first-class honours in mechanical and civil engineering and his subsequent career included working in the Airworthiness Department at the Royal Aircraft Establishment and as Resident Technical Officer at de Havilland’s, Stag Lane Since 1942, he had been at Ministry headquarters, where he was responsible particularly for transmissions With his long experience of mechanical systems and in establishing requirements for both rotors and propellers, Mr Newbery was an authority on the subject of his lecture— “The Programme of Development Testing for a Helicopter”
