FLIES OWN PLANE
IN FROM ANCHORAGE
Bob Long, of the Alaska Airlines
mechanic department, flew his
own plane from Anchorage last
Saturday and has been showing it
off to his friends the past few
days.
The plane, a Piper Super
Cruiser, was flown to Anchorage
from the factory and delivered to
Long who had been waiting there
for the arrival. The purchase was
made through the Nome agent of
the Piper Aircraft Company, Les
ter Bronson, who says he will
have two additional planes on the
way soon, to be used as demonstra
tors.
Long states that the trip over
from Anchorage was uneventful,
in that the little ship, with its 150
hp. motor, cruised the entire dis
tance without refueling.
