The significance of this moment is not lost on the onlookers, as Col. R.L. Preston, the Secretary General of the Royal Aero Club, and S.C. Caliendi, the Chief Instrument Engineer at de Havilland Aircraft Company, watch intently. The international attempt in question was likely a record-breaking flight or a groundbreaking aviation experiment, and Major Mayo's role was to ensure the authenticity of the data collected during the mission. The card he signs will be photographed onto the film carried in the aircraft, providing a crucial layer of verification for the instrument readings that will be recorded throughout the flight.
