Backers Put Up $200,000 to Help Start Airline

By MAX B. COOK Scripps-Howard Aviation. Writer

NEW YORK, May 12-- The faith of four Los Angeles| businessmen in the ability of the;

just as they did in China has paid off in a big way. They added $200,000"to a like! amount raised by a dozen vet-| erans who flew the “Hump” as, volunteers and now find themselves as directors of an airfreight line “legitimatiZed” by the Civil Aeronautics Board. i The Flying Tiger Line, Inc., on| June 24, begins providing regular! air-freight service extending| along the West Coast and across; the northern half of the United | States, under a certificate of public convenience and necessity. Some 43 pbints ultimately will| be served. It marks the success-|

{ § | i

Flying Tigers organized their line, Robert W. (Bob) Prescott, pres-|

tional Aviation Corp. over the “Hump.”

Gets the Idea

Bob Prescott had been credited| with shooting down six enemy, planes when he was with the Ti-! gers previously. Back in the U. 8. ‘he ran across 14 Conestoga car-| ‘go-type planes being offered by the Reconstruction Finance Corp.| for about $400,000. He began tel{ephoning other Flying Tigers to {induce them to pool their resources to raise the money; |. He phoned Robert P. (Duke)! {Hedman in New York; R, J. (Catfish) ‘Raines in Los Angeles; Joe! Rosbert in Seattle; Harvey Wirta; {William E. (Bart) Bartling; Chauncey (Link) Laughlin; Leon: 'P. (Colly) Colquette and others who had flown in China. { "A dozen pooled their savings and scraped up $200,000. But, Mr.| {Prescott (was $200,000 short, He 'told his story to Samuel B! Mo-| ‘sher, Allen T. Chase, Thomas J.| Sullivan and James E. Davidson of Los Angeles. | “I don't know of any better security than the records of these: daring young men who have visked their lives because of an ideal,” said Sam Mosher. - | The four men put up the $200, 300 but left majority control in the hands of the Tigers. Going Was Tough While most of the Tigers had| {been working on other jobs, each ione took a slice in salary to help! place the Flying Tigers on a {sound financial operation basis. { The Conestogas proved not oo! | good, but the Tigers began fly-| {ing perishables across the coun-| [try. The going was tough as Bob { Prescott puts it. Then came the] i jest break—in 1947—when the {Army furnished 32 C-54 trans- | {ports and contracted with the {Tigers to fly two flights daily {from California to Hawaii and | Tokyo. They carried about 12 {million ton miles of freight per. ‘month, And, they were on their | way. i Now with CAB approval, the. sFlying Tigers look forward Jo {financial success. And, each ‘of; their four Los Angeles “angels” {still are on the board of directors! as heavy stockholders. And isatisfied. The Tigers had come ough again.
