NOME’S NEW AIRPLANE FIELD
READY FOR WORLD FLYERS
(From Nome Nugget)
The Government and Territorial
airplane landing field at Nome is
about seventy-five per cent complet
ed. The work on the field com
menced on August 28th. During the
month of September serious delays
were encountered cn accoun, of the
excessive ains, and th woiv was in
termittent. During the month of Oc
tober the work was prosecuted with
vigor, and with the small force of
men employed, the results are most
gratifying. The field is situated on
the East side of the Bessie Road, at
a point about two miles from Nome
and is an ideal location. The
field is cruciform in shape, one leg
extending north and south, and the
other East and West. The general
slope is on four sides, making an
ideal field for landing or taking
oflf purposes. Each course is 200
feet wide by 1400 feet in length
and embraces an area of about 14
acres.
While it is not intended to finish
the work this fall the crew, with
one draw, one road grader, and a
caterpillar, are still working and
the finishing touches will be put
on early next summer. The field
is ready at any time for airplane
landing, being fully completed on
the East and West courses for a
width of 100 feet by 1,400 feet
long, and on the north and south
course 150 feet in width by 1400
feet in length. Mir. Bauer, the ef
ficient superintendent of the Alaska
Road Commission, who has charge
of the work states that an airplane
can take off in any weather from
the field, barring of course extra
ordinary storms.
Arrangements are in progress
for the building of two other land- j
ing fields between Nome and Ruby
known as “Forced” landing fields,
the distance between Ruby and Nome
necessitating the urgency of those
additional landings. Mr. G. R. Jack
son, chairman of 'the Airplane Land
ing Committee of the Chamber of
Commerce, has sent to Colonel Jas.
iSteese and Mr. Richard Woods of
the Fairbanks Airplane Corporation,
photographs and data of a forced
landing field at Unalakleet, together
with an offer from a local man there
to construct the landing field. Major
Oliver when in Nome last summer
'spoke of another likely site in the
vicinity of Golovin Bay. Both of
these projects will undoubtedly be

finished early next summer.
Oltlaens of Nome are to be con.
gratsulated for the untiring efforts
they exerted in bringing about the
■construction of this landing field.
It marks a new era in the life of our
^community and serves to closely
linik us with aM other parts of the
world. According to late dispatches
we will possibly witness Capt. Am
undsen’s dirigible descend here on
its way from the North Pole nex
spring. Other polar and commercial
expeditions will undoubtedly visit us,
also our Alaska Airplane Co., of Fair
banks, may make regular trips here.
The mail contract is going to be
sought for by the latter company and
if successful Nome "will be assured
of a regular air mail and passenger
service.
