RICHARD WEBB FIRST
SOLOIST OF YEAR
To Richard Webb goes the cov
eted honor of being the first stu
dent of the year from Rainbow
Skyways, to make his first solo
flight. On Monday, June 18 Pearl
Bragg, his instructress, stepped
out of the plane and told him he
was on his own, much to Richard’s
surprise.
He made two very successful
landings, but word has it that he
is still in the clouds, so to speak.
When Dick gets down to earth, he
is branch manager for Wien Air
lines.
Several other students are anx
iously awaiting their chance to
make their first solo flight, and
we hope it won’t be long.
