CAP Ci\<‘8
Assist To
Mukluk Caravan
The past weekend has been a
very interesting one for the Civil
Air Patrol. With the arrival at
Nome of the Mukluk Caravan
from Anchorage, the Cadets had
j the opportunity to put in use
j some of the practices and proced
ures which they have been studv
j ing for so long.
The fly-in started at about 7
p.m. Saturday and as the aircraft
I landed, members of the CAP as
sisted in post-flight check and
inspection, parking and tie-down,
after which the pilots and pas
sengers were directed to the CAP
headquarters building where they
were officallv welcomed, provided
with advice on available facilities
and transport after which they
were sent on their scheduled
tours of the Nome area.
Working on the flight line were
Tommy Boucher, Pepper Gray,
and David Grant who did a very
commendable job and coorin
ated closely with the FAA opera
tions to be absolutely sure that
all arrivals of the caravan were
accounted for.
Senior Member Lloyd Sund
strom, Art Zvlstra of KICY, and
Maj. Dusty Rhode of the CAP
provided shuttle service and all
other ground transport needs.
On Sunday the CAP headquar
ters was converted from a wel
coming post to a pre-flight brief
ing station where the caravan
checked points of their proposed
route, received the weather fore
cast and were assisted in pre
flight check of the aircraft by the
CAP ground crew.
The caravan was sent away
with a very good impression of
I Nome hospitality and services and
the CAP wishes to express their
thanks to non-members who gave
their services to make this flv-in
a success.
We are told that more of this
type of activity might be booked
for Nome due largely to the treat
ment accorded this first Mukluk
group.
