R. \V. Corbett, of Seattle, was ini
town today, en route to tne states, 1
where he is taking the aerial sled
which he and Mr. Rile/ invented for
use on the government trail between
Chitina and Fairbanks. In the experi

ations are necessary to the machine
so as to make its use practical on the
Alaskan trails and feel confident that
when they return with several of the
machines that they will be able to
operate on a commercial basis, car
rying passengers and express.
The sled is built somewhat similiar
to a small street, car and nas a 10f<
horsepower gasoline motor driving an
immense aerial propellor. In the sum
mer time the runners can he taken off
and wheels substituted.
Under favorable trail conditions the
machine attains a speed of from 60
to 70 miles an hour and can operate
successfully upon almost any condi
tions.
