S. armed forces stationed in Aviation off 22 Per Cent General aviation declined 22 per cent from 1949 to 1951, but: business flying, commercial crop control flying by ranchers and farmers and transportation for hire all showed an increase dur ing those two years, in a survey made by the civil aeronautics administration. Bringing the general aviation total down was instrumental fly ing, which dropped 55 per cent below the 1949 figure with the training hours falling from 4, 187,000 in 1949 to 1,902,000 hours in 1951, the smallest total since 1940. Much of this decline is attributed to the curtailment of G.I. flight training. General aviation figures for 1951 were 8,613,000, while in 1949 that figure was 11,031,000 hours. Also on the declining side was pleasure flying, off 34 per cent and industrial flying, off three per cent. Figures for pleasure flying in 1949 were 2,869,000 hours, compared to 1,880,000 in 1951. In 1949 the total hours for industrial flying was 417,000 hours, and in 1951 they were 403,000 hours. Business flying increased from 1,922,000 hours in 1949 to 2, 328,000 hours in 1951 and trans portation for hire flying in 1949 was 582,000 hours and in 1951 was up to 658,000 hours. Commercial crop control fly ing, which includes seeding, dusting, spraying, defoliation and fertilizing, in 1949 showed 450,000 hours and in 1951 listed 685,000 hours. Also climbing was flying by farmers and ranchers, which was up 12 per cent from 556,000 in 1949 to 622,000 hours in 1951.

Purchases by the armed forces, conversion of military pay and payments for taxi serv ices and phone calls account for the bulk of these dollar earn ings, the official told foreign and German correspondents. In contrast to other European countries, however. U. S. off shore procurement purchases in west Germany have been very small, said this official, who asked not to be named. Offshore purchases are those made for defense purposes in countries abroad. During the year ending last June 30, U. S. forces bought lo lh million dollars worth of supplies from the Germans, he said. Purchases are now running at more than double last year s rate. During the last year the U. S. has spent more than 580 million dollars in Europe for offshore purchases, the official said. A big part of this went to France, Italy and Britain for planes, tanks and munitions. West Ger many has no capacity now to produce such equipment and ap proval of the Allied Military Se curity Board still is needed to produce weapons here, the of ficial said.
