TUTTLE The Army's transport planes, which carried men and supplies to every corner of the globe arA to every battle front are "com plete instruments that d- every thing but the thinking for the pilot," Lt. Shelby T. Tuttle, for mer Army Air Transport Com mand officer told members of the Medford Rotary club Tues day. Speaking at the luncheon meaning at the Hotel Medford, Lt. Tuttle expressed the opinion that many of the accidents which have recently occurred in mili tary flying are due to inexperi enced pilots instead of faulty equipment. The operation of the AATC throughout the world and the development and expansion of flying aids will prove a boon to peacetime airlines, the. speaker said. Radio, radar, new flying techniques and safety measures discovered and perfected during the war will help American avi ation in the era of the air that lies ahead. Lt. Tuttle took the Rotarians on a mythical airline trip, ex plaining how pilots utilize the control stations established in this country and how they fol low the radio beams. The meth ods of handling air traffic for the safety of plane, passengers and pilots were discussed. Flights are spaced at least 15 minutes apart and each plane follows an assigned lane and alti tude. During his four years with the AATC- Lt. Tuttle piloted trans port planes to various foreign theatres of operation and told interestingly of his experiences on a few of those missions. He was introduced by Bert Straats. LINCOLN CAY SPEAKER Portland, Jan. 30 (U.R) Sena tor Hickenlooper of Iowa will be speaker at the Multnomah county Republican committee'?
