Re: Photos Royal Aircraft Factory Aircraft

Clint not to be too finicky but technically on Jan.2 it would be No.1 (Aux) School of Aerial Gunnery re-designated from the School of Aerial Gunnery (Dymchurch) the previous day; both this and Hythe were on the Kent coast ( appropriate that "Hythe" in Old English means "landing place").
The US Signal Corps / USAS also had tugs in WW1, mostly JN-4HGs "G" for gunnery as distinct from other trainers; stations included Arcadia FL and Fort Worth TX and the Navy had a few JN-6HGs same use.
