The group Of applicants who look
toward peacetime flying business
with the keenest anticipation and
toward whom official eyes will look
with greatest sympathy are the sol
diers and sailors, some already dis
charged veterans and others ready
to take to the air as soon as they
are discharged.
Of the $4,000 military pilots
which the war has produced, the
majority who plan to make aviation
their career, see their future as
pilots for established airlines. There
are, however, many who want to
start their own business moth
ing fancy, understand, maybe just a
local feeder line. There has been as
yet no breakdown to learn just what
percentage of the applications al
ready filed are by servicemen, but
the percentage is high. A typical
one is the application filed only a
few days ago by 1t. James Walker
Case of Suffer Creek, Calf, 90
year-old navy fiier. Lieutenant Case
wants to start business flying per-
sons and property to all parts of
California and Nevada in the most
suitable available aircraft, just as
soon as the navy let's him 60.
Taxi Rural Service.
There is also the Norsemen Air
Transport company, which turns out
to be several servicemen who want
to continue their war association
by establishing feeder airlines
throughout New England.
Many of these projects may never
see the light of day, but there are
applications like that of 1t. Col.
John c. L. Adams, who before be-
ing called back to his regular army
job when war came, organized and
operated an extensive air service in
Panama. He wants to start a sight
seeing business with helicopters or
light planes, tanning out in various
scenic routes from Cristobal and
Balboa. Until he can start work
sans uniform, his wife, Alberta, is
getting things lined up.
Then there are also a number of
women who plan to start airlines on
their own. Some of them, judging
from their application papers, have
already had successful careers in
other lines of business. There is An
geline Harris of Rutherfordton,
N. c., who proposes to start sched-
uled mail and passenger service
linking the smaller towns in North
Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia,
using either helicopters or light
conventional planes. She proposes
to land on postoffice roofs or the
nearest available vacant lot.

Detroit, proposes to run a helicopter
