Capital Delays
Plans for Large
Plane Buying

Capital Airlines has decided
to hold up plans to purchase
more turbo-prop planes and &C.
quire jet airliners because of a
drop in profits and also is shelly
ing a $45 million bank credit.
Plane orders affected imme-
diately are IS Vickers Viscount
turbo-prop airliners that were
to have been delivered during
the rest of 1857. Capital al
ready has SO of these planes
turned out by Vickers-Arm-
strong. Ltd, and reports they
have been making good money.
Capital also has decided not
to proceed now with a program
for purchase of 10 Comet w Jet
liners which were to have been
delivered in 1859. 1t notified a
group of 90 banks headed by
Chase Manhattan of New York
that it will not use bank credit
which had been arranged.
Several reasons led the COM
pany to the conclusion that de-
ferment of both financing and
delivery would be desirable. Cap
ital had anticipated that under
normal conditions the first quar-
ter results of this year would be
substantially better than the
actual results experienced. Be-
cause of factors primarily be-
yond Capitals control. this did
not prove to be the case.
Capital did. however, reverse
the industry's trend and showed
improvement in its operating re-
suits as against the industry's
first quarter decline IN operating
results. Uncertainties with re-
spect to the outcome of contract
negotiations with the Interna-
tional Association of Machinists
and uncertainty as to the deci-
sion Of the Civil Aeronautics
Board in the request for fare
increases made by Capital and
several other carriers were addi-
tlonal reasons for this decision.
President j. H. Carmichael
stressed the companyS salts
faction with the 50 Viscounts
ALREADY operating, stating that
both public acceptance and the
economics of the aircraft had
proven to be more attractive
than was originally anticipated.
He further expressed satisfac-
ton in Capitals choice of the
Comet for future use, in that
further study indicates not only
the inherent economy of its op-
Grafton but an awakening pas
