Scope and Contents
The first accrual reflects the daily operations of the CIR during its years at the Cornell University Medical College (1942-1955 for the aviation students, AvCIR, and 1953-1960 for the automotive studies, ACIR). The papers deal with budgets, fundraising, staffing and reports which resulted from the many studies. The work of the Washington branches of AvCIR is shown in the correspondence from 1945 and also in the monthly reports. These groups completed aviation research for the government and their projects included a helicopter safety study. The men who worked in these offices were, among others: David Morrison, Major Crane, and Mr. Moon.
