Thousands of miners and prospectors and thousands of tons of supplies have travelled by air. More than a score of aggressive and wellâ€" equipped companies do practically noâ€" thing else, and their operations extend. from Labrador to Aklavik, within the: Arcotic Circle. The annual freightâ€"haul first exceeded one million pounds (500 | tons in 1927;â€"rose to nearly 2 1â€"2 milâ€"; lions pounds in 1928 and nearly four. million pounds in 1929; receded to million ard threeâ€"quarters in 1931, and : has steadily increased since then unâ€". til last year it reached the astronomâ€". ical figure of twentyâ€"five million pounds, three and a half times as much: as was carried by United States planes. Whole mining towns have been transâ€" ported in knockâ€"down form on single‘ contracts.

Gold was found at Red Lake and other places, and Avâ€" iation‘s dawn was breaking. Western Canada Airways was founded late in the year ‘by James Richardson, of Winâ€" nipeg, the first commercial flight of this company being made on December 26th. In the following March this comâ€" pany undertook to fly eight tons of material from Cache Lake, on the Hudâ€" son Bay Railroad, to Fort Churchill beâ€" fore the spring breakâ€"up, and in sucâ€". cessfully fulfilling its contract, expedi-- ted the choice of Churchill g e ter-t minus for the railroad and §itill furâ€" ther demonstrated the value of air: transport. 3 Ts Â¥ AA "As 4 NA thrg 448 tA Ullg‘ ‘m-vu thing' they ‘knew building‘ their own machines for 18ck‘ of suilable. existing aircraft..

In| 1923 the late Captain H. S. Quigley, who had been chief pilot for Price Brothers, founded his> own concern, ‘Dominion; Aerial Explorations, Ltd., ‘Which;,did a lot of valuable work in remote districts; along the north shore"of the Bt.Lawâ€"| rence and as far as Lbrador. : In:the: same year, FPairchild Aerial | Surveys: was also started," primarily ‘‘to .exploit the Fairchfid camera, ‘nd first. Appropriately enough, it was the disâ€" covery of crude oll in the Northwest Territories in 1921 which , gave air transport the chance to pré?é jts worth.

They : would not be downed! when the proâ€" ‘pellors of ‘both the J unkei‘ ‘ machines provided by Imperial Oil Limijted had. been smashed, a new pmpenor was fabricated from oak sleigh ‘boards and. homeâ€"made glue by m ater whoI had never seen a propellor efore, and . one of the machines was flown out with it. W Start of Cemmercial l"lymg’ Here traffic resulting from t.ha ment, Canadian aviation op.xld had very poor picking. in mining activity in this counitry ; of which aviation is both: the bmfidary and â€" the cnmplemem.. Without â€"the geroplane infinitely fewer would have heen discavered and developed; and without the freight and passenger end iÂ¥ance. They When : the proâ€" nkeÂ¥?s‘ machines developâ€" ld have new engineering material which is supâ€" erior to natural rubber and is being usâ€" ed for the waterproofing floats, also in the / fabrication from light alloys of gasâ€"tight fuel oil tanks. The old time method of float building amade use of tapes impregnated with marine glue, soya bean oil, varnish or bitumastic cement, and the job of rivâ€" etting had ‘to be hustled through »beâ€" fore the compartments set. If it were interrupted it often had to be comâ€" menced all over again. With Neoprene: tapes and rivetting may be performedâ€" without undue ‘haste and interruptem ‘or grips of many of the levers with which the pilot controls his machine. "Lucite" is very strong; it can be turnâ€" ed, threaded, sawn, drilled and can be shaped at any time with heat. It is, therefore, not unduly, fantastic to foreâ€" see a transparent arneroplane for milâ€". itary purposes, in which the crew, the engine and the gasoline tanks will ‘be the only opaque members. unsatisfgcetory on account of quick deâ€" terioration and. their fatal habit of: expanding and contracting.

We built or assembled 86 new machines last year. Canada‘s Aircraft Factories ~ Canada‘s aircraft factories are straâ€" tegically, if perhaps accidentally, scatâ€" tered across the Dominion, though Queâ€" bec and Ontario claim by far the larâ€" gest share. The former province boasts three factories, all in the Montreal disâ€" 'tri-ct, andwthe latter four, each in a different city. â€" Any conceivable type ‘Or size â€"of aircraftâ€"could ‘be built in one Cf these plants. What is more, recent designs which have been produced, and.â€" others which areâ€"not yet completed, inâ€" : Have Reputation With these aircraft and their predeâ€" ‘cessors, Oanadian commercial pilobs have acquired @ reputation for getting through and delivering the goods whenâ€" ever it is humanly possible, and often whien it seems quite impossible. The personnel â€"of Canada‘s air transportaâ€" tion concserns have learnt to ‘be selfâ€" retant ‘because they have no one else. ;-to rely upon. Pilots often rustle their: own freight, solicit their own business, and tenderâ€"and collectâ€"their own‘ bills Their bases are wherever they‘ can s@fely land a machine and unload: their freight; their hours are, from: dawn to dusk. They wear no natty uniâ€" forms, and in these days of closed:‘ cockpits and cabin machines, most of: them have forgotten what a pair of goggles look like. Many of them reâ€" semble anything but the dashing pilot the pulp magazines, but they cerâ€". tainly can fly. If proofâ€"beyond that twentyâ€"seven million pounds of airâ€"<; borne freightâ€"were needed, it can be:. found in the fact that when a couple: of pilots were required to fly a maâ€" chine over the Sauth Pole, they came i0 Canada to get them. Tanls bring to mind Neoprene, the Noorduyn Aircraft Ltd., at Cartierville, j on the Island of Montreal. Canadian | eperators are now able to ohbhtain airâ€" craft designed and built in Canada for \Canadian conditions. Without excepâ€" tion. these modern machines hre what .is known as conyertible, that is, they can be fitted as required by the vagâ€" aries of our climate, with flioats for summer wear and skis for winter. The ebangeâ€"overs are made in spring and. fall, during the breakâ€"up and the freeseâ€"up, when operations temporarily ease in any event..
