but also design of structural re- visions to suit new uses and in some cases actual factory modifi cation and special overhaul of de- livered aircraft"
 Built in 1888 and, like the other PAYS, a forerunner of present day airliners, the Boeing has logged more than 16,000 hours flying time during the past IS years. Or iginally purchased by United Air lines, the Boeing transport was drafted at the start of the war by the Army Air Forces It was later loaned by the A to the Sperry Gyroscope Company for pro- gram of instrument tests and ex- periments. Since 1943, it has been serving as flagship" of Wien's fleet of 16 airplanes.
 Wien Airlines operates over some 1000 miles of scheduled routes, including a main trunk line from Fairbanks to Nome. It was one of the first commercial airlines in Alaska, inaugurated in 1927 by Noel Wien. Currently op- erating north of 64' latitude, it is the only scheduled airline serving Point Barrow and scores of lonely villages along the Yukon, Colville and Anaktuvik rivers and in the bleak interior of the Arctic slpoe.
 The Wien transport is the first of a pair of Boeing PAYS scheduled for modernization in Seattle, ac- cording to Charles V. West, the

 We have to have one Boeing operating for our long over-water hops to the St. Lawrence and Dio- mede islands," West explained. "As soon as the first one is com- pleted, we'll fly it back and bring down the second. I guess the one in Alaska now must be the grand daddy'-in point of service-of all 247's. It has covered about 4,00O,- 900 miles in some 22,000 hours of flying time-and is still going strong"
 The 247's, with their rugged re- tractable landing gear and char acteristic high-lift wing, are ideal ly suited for the bush-type flying encountered in Northern Alaska, according to West.
 Because the PAY was designed to take off with the tail down, it is ideally suited for the short fields we use," West explained.
The Nome nugget., 1946-02-27

A Boeing 247-D commercial transport, property of the Wien Alaska Airlines and veteran of nearly 3,OOO,0OO miles of flying, many of them over the rugged wastelands of the Arctic slope, is at the Boeing Aircraft Company in Seattle this week for modern ization.
 The 1O-passenger transport is to be fitted with four additional wing gas tanks, latest automatic radio direction finder equipment and will be painted with new Boeing-designed markings. The new tanks, two of which will fit in each outboard wing, will in crease the 247's range from 58O to nearly 1,2O0 miles.
 The project is typical of the type of customer service offered by Boeing'S newly lntegrated sal e s-engineering organization, which is designed to work closely with operators and prospective operators of all Boeing equipment.
 "Now that the wartime pres sures are off," explained We'll wood E. Beall, vice-president en- gineering-sales, "Boeing is again in a position actively to assist all operators of Boeing aircraft, in cluding owners of earlier models such as the 247, as well as the 314 Clipper and the BOT Stratoliner. Such assistance will include not only the routine supplying of data on operations and maintenance,

All D. {. Building Projects
Are Ordered Reviewed

Assistant Engineer Commissioner
Joseph D. Arthur, jr., has called on
District department heads to review
all their building projects for which
money has already been appropri-
ated to see if the projects can still
be justified before the Civilian Pro-
duction Agency to obtain clearance
for construction.
Col Arthur, who is director of
District construction, said he ex-
pected replies very shortly. He said
no projects contemplated in the
1947 budget now before Congress
were to be included in the review.
Items due for study, however, in
.clude the proposed $285 900 receiving
home for children, Kimball School
addition, the Slowe School, pedia-
tries building and a laboratory at
Gallinger Hospital.
Meanwhile, the Commissioners
are scheduled to meet Thursday at
II am. with civic spokesman on be-
half of the Kimball addition. Par
ents of children at the school staged
one-day strike last fall to call
attention to the overcrowding there.
