To the Honor Guests of the NAA International

On behalf of the officers, directors and all members of the National Aeronautic Association, I wish to extend to you a sincere welcome to Washington, D.C. as the guest of our Association. The NAA as you know is the United States representative of the Federation Aeronautique Internationale and you may believe  we are especially pleased that you have accepted our invitation to be with us on this forty-eighth anniversary of the founding of FAI and the fiftieth anniversary year of man's first controlled powered flight.

Attached are several papers which will give to you additional information about NAA. I hope you have enjoyed your visit with us - that we will meet again - and that our friendship shall forever serve to  make the future of aviation provide an even greater peaceful purpose - that our world can live in harmony.

Respectfully yours,
H.K. Coffey
