the 29-acre, garden-filled Davies
family estate, and aboard the
Sea Cloud, Mrs. Davies' 316-foot

Their marital split had been

Helicopter May Be Available To Public
In Future At Cost of Medium-Sized Car
$&
San Francisco (U.P.) You too
will be able to have your own
private helicopter for about the
price it would cost to buy an
automobile.
That's the optimistic predic
tion of Stanley Hiller Jr., dy
namic young president of the
Hiller Helicopter Co., of Palo
Alto, Calif.
Hiller, at 30 a veteran of 14
years in the comparatively in
fant industry, tacked a lot of
"ifs" on his speculation for the
future. But, he said, within the
next 15 years his company "con
ceivably" could mass produce
helicopters which would retail
for the cost of a medium priced
car.
Hiller came to town to ad
dress the San Francisco Adver
tising club and made an entic
ing reference to "a helicopter in
every garage" but failed to elab
orate on the point.
In an interview after the
luncheon he talked enthusiastic
ally of one, two, three and four
place 'copters within the reach
of the average citizen by 1970.
"But it all depends on the
military," he said. "If they con
tract us to develop such aircraft
further, thus enabling us to tool
our plant for the smaller heli
capters, the changeover to as
sembly line production would be
relatively simple."
Hiller said his company al
ready has designed and made
"flying jeeps" and "airborne
staff cars" for the Army. With
out too much modification, he
said, these could be converted
for civilian use.
"In limited production, this
type of aircraft retails for about
$30,000 to $40,000," he said.
"But when we get them on the
assembly line I think they could
be marketed for the same price
it would cost to buy a Stude
baker, for example."
Hiller said the present cost per
pound for production of a heli
copter is $23 whereas it takes
only 90 cents a pound to build
most autos on an assembly line
basis.
"Because the helicopter is a
vastly simpler machine, I'm con
vinced that in mass production
we could build one for less than
90 cents a pound," he said.
Hiller, a slight, intense man,
also spoke glowingly of 60-pass-enger
"helicopter busses" in the
American future, and he alluded
to a top-secret military project
now underway at Palo Alto
which will result in "the most
unconventional lifting device
imaginable."
He declined to give any de
tails, but asked if the device
had anything to do with getting
the human body airborne with
out a conventional helicopter
cabin, Hiller replied:
"It's something like that. You
can just about strap it on your
back."
Hiller had great confidence in
the potential of the helicopter
industry, and he said the "least"
of his worries was public reluct
ance to leave the ground.
"We can teach you to solo in
one hour," he said. "And once
you've flown a helicopter you'll
be convinced it's a lot safer than
driving a car on the highway."
