ers of the Anchorage j
bo k. ox the CAB have sub-i
mixt . a recommendation fori
one of the airlines, Kinsey
said.
“It is my understanding
that no airline has asked f jr a
direct route from Kodiak to
Seattle. Some of them have,
astxeU for one for a route from 1
Kodiak via Anchorage to Se- >
attle,” Kinsey said.
Once the president signs the
order the airline receiving the
route may apply for a modi-!
fication of the order which ;
would permit it to make regu- |
lar scheduled flights direct, (
Kinsey added.
In answer to a question re-.
garding the local service of
fered by Bob Hall’s Air Ser- j
■vice and Alaska Airlines, i
Kinsey said, “The type of
service they offer is similar. It
is only a technical point of
whether they are certificated
or operate under an exemp
tion order.”
Any rumors of the Navy
prohibiting the use of its field
to commercial airlines in the
event jet aircraft are based
here has not reached his ears, j
hinsey said, in answer to a
question.
“However, I will endeavor
to talk i'withsilNavy ’officials
while I amjhere to ascertain if j
such action is ^planned,” f$he ,
added.
