Work Starts On DC-3
Field At Point Barrow
JUNEAU — Tony Schwamm,
territorial director of aeronautics,
left last week en route to Point
Barrow, where work is to begin
soon on the new territorial air
port.
Steel matting for the runway is
already on the scene and ready to
be moved into place, Swamm said,
and the DC-3-type landing field
is expected to be completed this
season. /
The field was necessitated, Mr.
Schwamm explained, by the Navy
limitation of three flights a week
for commercial craft. There are
at present no facilities for private
planes at Point Barrow, but Mr.
Schwamm said the new airfield
will greatly aid air travel along
the northern coast.
