Aviation Day
National Aviation Day is to
be observed August 19, It isa
day when most attention will be
directed toward the unbelievable
advances that have taken place
in the art, of flying in short
space of time since the Wright
Brothers lifted their frail craft
off the ground at Kitty Hawk.
Aircraft exhibits will dramatize the marvelous performance,
comfort, and speed of today's
planes--planes of every kind
and size, If you are in the right
vicinity, you will see the small
pleasure craft, as well as the
planes that have become the tools
of the businessman, and the jets
that carry air travelers throughout the globe.
There are other aspects of
the aviation age that cannot be
paraded across an airport but
are equally impressive. For
one thing, the cost of living
has increased by 50 per cent
since 1947, yet the cost of air
travel is lower than it was then
and has decreased by 13 per
cent during the last 5 years,
The decline is more spectacular
-and realistic-when put another
way. Expressed in constant dollars of 1967 purchasing power,
the average cost incurred by air
passengers per mile of travel
in 1967 was more than onethird less than in 1947, Another
aspect of air travel that cannot
be put on exhibit is the impact
of the great jets flying internationally carrying millions of
people each year to every nation on earth,
What this must inevitably
mean in terms of greater understanding among all peoples
will never be measured on a
graph. Yet, it may well turn out
to be the most decisive factor
in reaching the ultimate goal
of peace and a higher civilization. :
