E. Robbins, (“Robby”), well known Pacific Alaska Airways pilot, was Captain of the flight And with “Robby” as First Officer, was Jerry Jones, still another Pacific Alaska Airways pilot who has been working on the Electra runs until now and has made a host of friends threughout the Territory. The remainder of the crew composed of Navigation Officer Frank Glen, Flight Engineer Ward McLean, Radio Officer Dave Wil- liams and Superintendent of Com- munications, Bob Gleason, another Pacific Alaska Airways man. The clipper landed at Auk Bay yesterday for the first time since winter flying equipment was added to the ship. Staying overnight here last night, the plane left for Ketchi- kan today and may stay there for the night, going to Seattle Friday because of short daylight hours The lack of flying daylight is ex- plained by the always hard to un- derstand fact that in going to Seat- tle from here, one flies with an east- erly rather than a southerly bear- ing, losing better than an hour of daylight. Average flight time for the trip to Ketchikan from Seattle by clipper is now placed around five hours, | with the Ketchikan to Juneau hoy | averaging a little less than an hour and a half, making the total flying time from Seattle to Juneau at six and a half hours. | Three altitudes have been flown on the trip, with wind forecasts be- ing received for 1,000, 8,000 and 12,- 000, foot levels, the plane taking the most favorable altitude. No announcement has been made of further flights, but it is believed the winter trial flights will continue until running of the route is thor- oughly established. e ee— DR. BAUER RETURNING Dr. H. C. Bauer, consultant with the Alaska Planning Council, will return to Juneau on the Mount McKinley leaving Seattle Saturday. Dr. Bauer has been spending” the team” is Christmas holiday in Seattle. —————— Today’s News ‘rodav—Fmoire.
