Boys, if you love speed and
have an impulse to step on the
gas when you're under the
steering wheel, don't try flying
on the highway, take to
the air as three of our coworkers

has already attained his student
pilot license and is eligible
for his private license.
Melvin Barbee is trying for
his student pilot license bv
middle of January and hopes
to have his private license by
June. He says he has about
got his wife interested in
flying too. Larry Cauble is
taking instructions in flying
and hopes to solo before you
read this.
Good luck boys but remember
that no matter how high
you fly you have to come
down again, so learn to make
the descending gracefully.
We know one guy in here
that is going to have to start
getting up early and practice
