'fljx .11 7' l7 ? gf g A Vke CYNO SURE 1928 1 Iieronaulics in ffargo The Fargo Aeronautic Club, which was organized last May, has been largely responsible for Fargo's being recognized in the field of aviation. This club was formed for the purpose of promoting a greater Fargo and Northwest. The establishing of the air field here, through the courtesy of Mr. Martin Hector, Presi' dent of the Fargo National Bank, was aided by the club. Through its efforts also, Governor Sorlie of North Dakota came to Fargo to speak at the dedication of this field. Colonel Charles Lindbergh's visit here, as well as Verne Roberts' entrance in the National Air Derby, representing Fargo with the monofcoupe, GofFargofGo, was sponsored by this club. Other planes which have stopped here as a result of the recognition of Fargo in the air field are: the Stanolin plane, which belongs to the Standard Oil Co., the Royal Typewriter plane, and the Cotton Duster. The first air mail, sponsored by the ,Fargo Aeronautic Club, stopped here on its way from St. Paul to Winnipeg. It is probable that Fargo will be placed on the proposed northern transcontinental airplane route, and also will be on the proposed north and south route between Winnipeg and Omaha, according to Murray Baldwin, president of the Fargo Aeronautic Club. This route would connect at Omaha with the transcontinental air mail route. Mr. Ewald of Sioux Falls, South Dakota, is one of the backers of this proposed line. Fargo was also on the route of the Class B planes of the National Air Derby last summer. Likewise, it will be on the route of the Ford Reliability Tour to be held this summer. Fargo has one of the three regularly used air ports of the present time, and of the approximately twenty airplanes of North Dakota, Fargo has six. Its aviation club, the Fargo Aeronautic Club has two hundred and fifty members. Also, the flat territory here, with the generally favorable climatic conditions, makes Fargo's prospects of being placed on important air routes excellent. Some of the visitors brought to Fargo this year through aviation projects are Mr. Balchen and Mr. Bennettl' who were on Commander Byrd's North Pole trip and are also on the roll for the proposed coming South Pole flight as pilots. They stopped here to take on gas while delivering seven Fokker Cabin ships to the Canadian government for use in Northern Canada. Fargo's reserve officers who belong to the air corps are: Capt. Gerald R. King, Lieutenant Charles M. Page, Major Victor C. Parker, Major john Lee Coulter, George N. Powell, Arthur W. Dahl, Irwin Kruger, and Verne L. Roberts. Floyd Bennett flied April 25. . 14
