UNITED AIR LINES CELEBRATES TENTH Medford will Join tomorrow with other cities from the Canadian to the Mexican border In celebrating the tenth anniversary of Pacific coast air transportation. It was on September 15. 1926, that Pilot Grover Tyler completed the initial flight linking California to the Pacific northwest by taking a slngle engined 90-mlle-an-hour mall plane from Portland to Seattle. Now credit ed with more than a million miles of flying over the airway, Tyler will cover this same section on a com memorative flieht tomorrow. According to W. A. Patterson, presi dent of United Air Lines, the com pany's planes will complete the 20, 000,000th mile of flying between the Pacific northwest and southern Cali fornia on the anniversary date. This figure, added to. 20,000.000 miles chalked up on Untted's coast-to-coaat route, gives the company its interna tional record of 100.000,000 miles of operations. Since schedules were inaugurated In 1026 by Pacific Air Transport., a predecessor division of United, approximately 245,000 revenue passengers, 4,150,000 pounds of air mall and 1,305,000 pounds of air ex press have been carried between prin cipal Pacific Coast cities, Patterson stated. A single daily round trip between Seattle, Medford and Los Angeles with slow open-cockpit mail planes mark ed the humble beginnings of Pacific coast air transportation. Tyler and his brother pilots of the pioneering days flew largely according to their own Judgment. Such things as two way radio telephone communication, modern flight and engine Instru ments, the directional radio beam and an airway weather reporting service were unkhown. Intermediate fields were any cleared spots which hap pened to be handy. Second-hand automobile headlights were used as the first beacons. Tn contrast, Unlted's high-speed twin-engined Boeing transports to day operate on five dally round trips between Seattle and Portland, with three of these continuing through Medford to southern California and one daily round trip between Seattle and Vancouver, B. C. Carrying ten passengers, two pilots a stewardess, baggage and cargo, these planes have a top speed of 202 miles an hour, cruise at 189 miles an hour and can climb to as high as 11,500 feet on either one of their two 5 50 -horsepower Wasp engines. Operating on "commuter" schedules, they link every major Pacific coast city from Vancouver. B. C, to San Diego, giving these points the same type of service as Is maintained by United Air Lines on 1U mld-contlnent route from Pa cific coast cities to Chicago and New York.
