WEST BARNSTABLE HYANNIS AIRPORT (Barnstable Municipal Airport) Airport Commissioner Ken Wil- son and sons are regular visitors at the port Sunday afternoons to watch flight operations. Nancy Barnard. Cape Cod Flying Club secretary, has completed her cross-country flights and IB now taking check rides with club In- structor Forrest Coggeshall In preparation for her private pilot's flight test with CAA Examiner Al Sherman. Bill Kqrkuch of Hyannis and Cape Air Service ,, GI commercial student, completed a cross country flight to Manchester, N. H., last Sunday. BUI reported the ground covered with snow from Plymouth, Mass., on to Manchester. Our airways airport beacon will soon be In commission for all night-operation, which has been re- quested by the Civil Aeronautics Authority. George Blanchard of Aviation Maintenance Company can't seem to take the Cape Cod winters, so will Boon depart for Florida, where he plans to build a cottage on a piece of land he has owned in Miami for several years.' Captain Dick Weeks, TJSNR, ar- rived from Squantum Monday in a Navy SNJ to have a cup of coffee and visit with Manager Al Sher- man, Lt. G. B. Wilklns, Army 33rd Fighter Wing Jet pilot, was check- ed out in Cape Air Service's Cess- na 120 by Chet Henderson. Lieut. Wilkins, who has had about all of his flying in Jets, was surprised to note that the top speed of the Cessna was less than the landing speed of the F-84s. After the check- out he flew over the Cape to locate places where lie might do some duck hunting. Northeast Airlines Station Man- ager Hartley Hutchlns reports that the November passenger quota totaled 155% It may be that some of the prizes offered by the com- pany will land at this station. Mr. and Mrs. Don Lewis, of Trenton, N. J., arrived in their Swift for an overnight visit with friends in Dennis. The Swift is very attractive in its new two-tone yellow and gray paint job. Airport Mgr. Al Sherman was in Boston Tuesday for conferences with Mass. Aeronautics and CAA officials. With the departure of Mechanic George Blanchard to Florida, other arrangements are being made to have our tetrahedron (wind tee) re- covered and put in use again. As this is our only lighted wind direc- tion indicator, the fleW has been closed to night flights, with the ex- ception of Northeast Airlines.- Marvin Odbm of Falmouth Air- port, flew the papers to the Islands for Cape Air Service Thursday and Friday, to give Chet Henderson a well-earned rest. Mr. and Mrs. Leo Lewis of Hy- annis, departed by alrlineB from . Hyannis and via Boston, New York, and Chicago to Tuscon, Ariz., where they will spend the Winter. Bill Korkuch, CAS student, took his final flight checks with In- structor Chet Henderson, prepara- tory to his commercial flight teBt with Examiner AJ Sherman. George Parmenter has decided that the deer can hide too well during deer season, so he's now out to see if the ducks will do the same. (So far they have.) The number of reservations be- ing made daily with NBA, Indicate that the older folks of the Cape who Winter In Florida are faBt tak- ing advantage of the fligh t service to their Winter playgrounds. With- in ten hours from the time they depart from Hyannis, they arrive in their Winter quarters in the Southland. Cape Air Service has made ar- rangements with Cape Cod Flying Service for the use of their Stlnson Voyager so that Ken Nightingale, CAS G. I. student, can get in some time in a heavier ehip in prepara- tion for his commercial license. CAPE COD AIRPORT One of the unusual requests for a trip to Monomoy Point was made this week by Mr. Joe Eldredge of Buzzards Bay. In the Piper Super Cruiser with Instructor Angus Per- ry at the controls, Mr. Eldredge was flown to Monomoy and landed on the beach. All this was In anticipa- tion of the open season on ducks and Reese which was to start this Friday. With the later restrictions that have been levied on this por- tion of the Cape, it is anybody 's guess whether any further trips will be made. It all depends on what part or parts of the point have been restricted. In the annals of charter flying, though, it was interesting while it lasted. Checkouts rated high this week also, with Robert Childs of Center- ville and Paul Lorjett of Hyannis, both Commercial Pilot students, fin- ishing their requirements for solo in the Taylorcratt and proceeding around the field practicing land- ings with the empty right seat. Both Bob and Paul will be check- ing out in the Piper Super Cruiser very shortly. Kenneth Nightingale of Hyannis, a Cape Air Service Student, had a thorough checkout in the Stlnson 150 with Instructor Angus Perry before he took lt once around the Held solo at Hyannis. Ken IB also on the Commercial Pilot course. As part of his requirements he must have time in a ship that has over 145 horse power. A little night fly- ing Is also anticipated In order to All the bill for the ticket. Jimmy Chute of Osterville couldn't resist the sunny day and Ideal flying weather that Sunday brought, so he rented a Piper Cub for an hour In order to feel things out. Also having his regular, stint around the local area was Dr. Joel Gould of Pocasset In the Super Cruiser. A recent vlsltof at the Cape Cod Airport was Poet Laureate Harry Kemp of Provlncetown, who arrived after dark from Boston With Flying Service owner John C. Van Ars- dale in the Stlnson 150. After a brief layover, during which time Mr. Kemp had the opportunity to look over our windmill, he was en route again for Provlncetown with Airport Manager Angus Perry as an added passenger, who ferried the ship back to its home Held. John Goward of Buzzards Bay is preparing for a dual cross country trip in preparation for, a solo one which will follow. John, who has progressed very rapidly, will be getting that Private Airdale Cer- tificate very soon if he keeps up the rate which he has set In between the days of bad weather there has been a consid- erable amount ot activity at the Cape Cod Airport. Cross country flights have been predominant, the longest one being made by Com- mercial Student Fred Benttinen of Falmouth. Fred manned the plotter and maps until he forged a line between Cape Cod and Wilmington , Delaware. With quite a stiff head- wind, the trip down took him Ave hours In the Taylorcratt. That was when the fun started! For the next three days you couldn't see your hand in front of your face, and on the marital front , Mrs. Bent- tinen became entitled to a charter membership in the Airport Widows of America Club. However, with a favorable day after a patient wait , Fred piloted the ship to its home field In four hours, arriving around two in the afternoon. "All's well that ends well ." John Goward of Buzzards Bay navigated the Piper Cub around the triangular course of Ports- mouth, N. H., Norwood, and Cape Cod on his first solo cross-country flight in preparation for his Private Pilot Certificate. Did a swell job, too, and is now getting ready for a shorter one to complete the re- quired time for cross-country! Other cross-country flights were made by Paul Lorrett of Hyannis to Westerly, R. I„ in the Taylor- craft, and by Dr. James (Llndberg) Leach to Nantucket in the Piper Super Cruiser. Dr. Jim has just fin- ished his checkout in the Piper Super Cruiser with Instructor An- gus Perry, and logged a couple of hours solo in it before going 'cross the ocean to the Island, Dr. Jim's comments on the landing at Nan- tucket are, "I'm convinced that it's the runways; hot me." Those smooth runways fascinate him, while tho rougher sod fields tend to shake the ship around a little more. Better not let him go over there too much—lt might spoil him. Also in the checkout department was a little dual for Buddy Lapham of Marstohs Mills, also in the Tay- lorcrlft, which entitled him to take it around the field solo. Buddy han- dled the ship so well that the last half hour looked like an aerobatlc checkout, with a lot of cross con- trol maneuvers and spins Included In the curriculum , along with shal- low wlngovers and others. The Piper Cub has been at the Narragansett Airways shop in New Bedford for a routine 100-hour in- spection, and is back on the line feeling and looking like a brand new one. The seaplane, in the mean- time, lost Its buoyancy on the wa- ter and received a set of wheels In exchange for the floats at the hands of Line Chief Jack Cunningham of Bourne and Airport Manager' An- gus .Perry. The Mystic Lake Sea- plane Base is now officiall y closed for the winter, and will reopen next spring for the summer season as usual. The Cape Cod Flying Service will be closed all day Christmas, but will be open Monday as usual. The management and pilots wish every one a very happy holiday season. UP IN THE AIR [ REV. ELLIOT F.
