7. There are no vested interests exerting influence on civil air policy. KLM, how-
ever, which is principally government owned, as the single flag carrier dominates the
government agencies and thus influences civil air policy.
8. The government sponsors, controls, and subsidizes aeronautical education. The
RLVD in the Ministry of Transport directly operates its own National Flying School for
pilots, the Ministry of Education operates the technicians' schools, and the State Uni-
versity of Delft provides aeronautical engineering training. All schools are optional.
Students are fully self-supporting and pay a small tuition. The total enrollment
at
Delft and the flying training school is approximately 100 each, with enrollment in
technical schools approximately 500. The government lays greatest emphasis on
educating sufficient technicians and pilots eventually to fulfill all KLM needs. KLM
operates schools for advanced pilots, technician and administrative training.
9. The government operates its own National Aeronautical Research Institute and
subsidizes in full the Netherlands Institute for the Development of Aircraft, the board
of which includes representatives from KLM, Fokkers, the above-mentioned institute,
and various government departments. The Netherlands Institute has no laboratory
but directs and gives financial support to Fokkers for the development of prototype
aircraft.
The research program is not extensive because of a relatively small investment
and a limited manufacturing industry. The National Aeronautical Research Institute
has a laboratory consisting of material, stress, and aerodynamics section, and has two
