The annual meeting of the Aeronautic League of New Jersey was held 7 Feb. 1911. Meetings were opened to all interested in aviation and no practical experience in aerial navigation was required. (We suspect this organization has also been referred to as the Aeronautique Society of New Jersey but believe the correct name to be the Aeronautic League of New Jersey as that is the name used by the secretary of the organization in reports to the periodical Aircraft.)

Officers in 1911, included Cornelius De Bernardi, president; Charles Remond, vice president; William A. Kraus, secretary; and John E. Ring, treasurer. They also acted as the Technical Committee. At the meeting, models of various kinds of flying machines were exhibited and discussed. Three of the members were constructing full-size machines.
