a portrayal of the RCAF's progress during the celebra-
tion of its 35th anniversary this year, At left, the RCAF
pildt of 1924 leans against the wire-braced wings of his
95 mph Avro 504 to peer at the camera from a bulky
and cumbersome flying suit lined with fur, At lower
centre is a 504 seaplane, showing the open cockpit which
made his bulky-clothes necessary, even in the low altitud-
es at which he flew, At right, today's CF-100 pilot climbs
into the heated and pressurized cockpit of his "Canuck"
in a light, unrestricting garment in which he'll be com-
fortable at 45,000 feet and more than 500 mph. At top
centre is his aircraft in flight. (National Defence Photo)
