with the establishment of the
transcontinental air mail there will be
at the service of the United States

greatest system of regularly main
tanned landing fields and facilities in
the world, a system that will enable
the movement of air fleets from ocean
to ocean with large landing fields and
fueling and repair facilities approx
mately every 200 miles.
The transcontinental daily airmail
will be the most difficult flying project
yet undertaken. Not only has it
required the working out of details
for a daily operation of a route nearly
5000 miles long, but the actual flying
will be under most trying conditions
Ae Cheyenne, Salt Lake City and
Reno, the daily flying with a full load
of mail will have to be at attitudes
ranging from $4,000 to $4,000 feet a.
sea level and over high windswept
plateaus with powerful headwinds to
cut down the speed of the planes. In
tense cold weather will be encounter
ed, as we'll as snow, and against these
contingencies all advance preparations
possible have been made. Powerful
radio stations for communication with
the planes. in the mountain sections
have been installed at Reno, Salt Lake
