The Kinglscy Field Aero Club,
an organization of flying enthus
iasts, has announced that begin
ning immediately it will fly base
personnel on short hops for "a
penny a pound."
The 15-minule fights were in
stituted by Aero Club president,
l.t. Dale P. Livingston, as a unique
way of giving publicity to the re
. organized club.
For an average 185 pound indi

conducted for Sl.ai somewhat
below the cost of fuel alone
and would provide the passenger
with a spectacular view of the
area.

aircraft and a Piper Tri-Pacer.
Both are well equipped with radio
and navigational gear.
The club also offers ground
school and flying instruction to
base personnel. Richard Hardy is

today.

Norman G. Dyhrenfurth, of Santa
Monica, Calif., told the story at!
the group's first news conference
since returning from its historic
triple assault on the world's high

were working their wav back
down from the summit when 25
feet of trail on a snow cornice
gave way under Whittaker's feet
and he suddenly found himself in
mid-air, "dangling upside down
from a rope."
Dyhrenfurth said Gombu s quick
action in tightening the rope saved
Whittaker's lite.
Whittaker, 32, of Itedmond,

hazardous. The two men reached :
the top May 1 in the face of
heavy snow plumes and howling
winds, he said.
Everest seemed to me much
higher than the height mentioned

Whittaker said with a smile.
Asked if he would like to climb
the 29,028-foot peak again, he
said:
"Not in the near future."
Whittaker said he had gone
