Alaska Airlines to Put Convair 44Os On Nome Rum

SEATTLE - The Board of Di- rectors of Alaska Airlines has ap- proved the acquisition of fleet of three Convair 440 aircraft for use on the company's scheduled routes and charter operations in Alaska, according to president Charles Willis IT.
 The convair 44o is the latest in piston aircraft design, featur- Ing pressurized cabins, integral boarding stairs and deluxe 52 seat interiors. The aircraft will be modified to include a forward cargo door for high speed loading of freight without interference to passengers.
 The purchase of the late model Convairs. together with the cost of new modifications will represent an investment of $1 ,500,000 by Alaska Airlines, to upgrade it's intra-Alaska service between Am chorage and Fairbanks, and An chorage, McGrath, Unalakleet, Nome and Kotzebue, Willis said. The new planes are expected to go into service in July.
 Introduction of the high speed 440 on Alaska Airlines' intra-state routes will reduce flying time over the present DC-4 schedules by 25 and the fully pressurized cabins will enable the plane to fly at higher attitudes with re- sultant additional passenger com fort.
 Willis also announced decision by the Board of Directors to dis pose of the company's fleet of four EDC-4s. Lloyds International Air ways of London took delivery of one of Alaska Airlines DC-4s March B and will take delivery of second DC-4 this month.

There was one stunt where the driver would
