Light Plane Clubs

What Our Readers Say

I have just finished reading your editorial on “Private Flying Clubs.” You are right when you say that there are many Americans who are observing the British light plane clubs with admiration and envy ! I am sure that there are thousands of young business men like myself who are sold on the future of flying for both pleasure and business, but who cannot learn to fly because of the prohibitive cost.

Editorial Comment

From the Daily Press

WE HEREBY make respectful in\ quiry as to the why and wherej fore of the searchlights which sweep } the heavens from a dozen high towers j in and around our fair city. From > various sources we have heard that j these are air beacons, designed to help ? aviators, just as lighthouses aid marj iners, and that in consequence they s must be accepted as evidence of prog-. s ress, indicating as they do that New j York is becoming air-minded.

Well, Ed, it seems it is about time for me to leave “America’s Most Interesting City” an I guess I am not going to be able to look into the aeronautical situation after all, on account I being so busy with other important matters. Well, in the first place the horse racing business is in terrible shape as none of the horses was running in the order I set down for them.
