what are considered the average re-
qiremcnts for n municipal landing sta
tion?"
"a piece of land 5000 feet square,
within, say, five miles of the business or
residence district of the city," said Capt.
Francis. 1T should be convenient to high
ways and TO lntertrban lines, and in the
immediate surrounding there should be an
absence of trees and tall buildings, for
convenience of ascent and descent is the
important factor in the operation of the
aIrplane llangr s, gasoline stations,
machine shops and small hotels should be
provided.
The number of privately owned air
planes IN a given city will depend on the
establishment and convenlences of the
aerial dock there, as a private landing
place IN connection with the residence of
the city dweller who owns an airplane is
not feasible That is why accessibility
will be important, in this connection.
The owner who at the close of his business
hours desires to take a spin in the air,
Will want his machine in a place he can get
TO readily. At country homes and on
farms, | expect to see individual landing
stations, and in the future one of the
things that will add attraction to the spin
