Whaley Brings Travelair
From Fairbanks For
Munz Airways Operations
Jack Whaley of Munz Airways
has returned to Nome after testi
fying before the CAB intra-Alaska
hearings still going on in Anchor
age. Whaley said it was his belief
thaj bush pilots would be allowed
to continue to serve this northern
territory as unscheduled carriers,
as they have in the past.
Whaley said he wished to thank
all the people who supported his
stand before the CAB hearing
with letters and wires.
Jack brought a “new” plane
over from Fairbanks—an eight
place Travelair—for Munz Air
ways. He said that while the plane
was about 30 years old, it had
been rebuilt several years ago
for the Fish and Wildlife Service
at a cost of about $25,000. Jack
described the plane as a “bush
pilot’s dream” because of its abil
ity to take off and land with
heavy loads from short fields.
Whaley’s family will be coming
over from Fairbanks in about a
week.
Trio Dunked In
Bering Sea Sunday
Wlieii Boat Upsets
It was a little cold to be swim
ming in Bering Sea yesterday, but
when, when your boat overturns
there is no help for it. The small
outboard-powered boat belonging
to D. Murane overturned Sunday
off the east end at about 6:16 p.m.
Aboard were C. J. Phillips,Mrs.
Murane, and Diane Swanberg,
who were on the way tor a picnic
down the coast.
Luckily for them another small
boat was nearby and a prompt
rescue was made. Bobby Herman
and Art Jessup just happened to
be taking a boat ride in Steve
Dickson’s speedy little outboard
and they brought the three to
shore. Then they went back out
and towed the overturned boat
to the beach.
Bob Kite Realizes
His Life's Ambition
With Homer Homestead
Very few of us realize our life’s
ambition, b<it one Nome man did
just that last week. Bob Kite left
by Alaska Airlines for Anchorage
enroute to a homestead in Homer.
Bob’s dream has been to get a
small plot of land there with a
few chickens, a couple of porkers
and “live off the fat of the land.”
Kite took a tent with him in
which he will live until he can
put up a cabin. Arrangements for
the land were made through the
Veterans Administration. Kite is
a veteran of World War I.
