Largest Plane Ever Made Can Land
Safely On Ocracoke Island Beach
NO PLANE IS TOO large to land on the mile -wide
beach of Ocracoke Island. Aviators who have landed there
say it is the largest natural airport in the world. The above
picutre was made on Ocracoke beach a few days ago. It
how a partial view of the big 3-motored Stinson owned by Mayor R.
J. Reynolds, of Winston-Salem. In this plane Mayor Reynolds, who
is also treasurer of the National Democratic Committee, gets about the
country in a hurry. He is a mighty busy young man and has to go
places in a hurry as you will agree if you read Bob Erwin's story about
him which we'reprint elsewhere in today's edition from State Maga.

MORE ABOUT
REYNOLDS
Continued from i,age one)
In those days, Amelia Earhart
was an aviatrix unknown, although
later she came to be recognized as
a firstrate pilot. It so happened
that Dick Reynolds was in England
when the "Friendship" landed
there. Miss Earhart decided to
places and done things, Reynolds
likes to reminicences over the ear
ly days of American aviation in
which he played quite a prominent
part. Back in 1926 and 1927, as
a youth of 19 and 20, he was the
owner of Curtis Field, (Long (Is
land, now known as Roosevelt
Field, and was manufacturing air
planes at the Ireland Amphibian
plant at Mineola, Long Island. In
those days, many pioneer aviators,
whose names are permanently in
scribed in American aviation at
Curtis Field and hopped off from
there on transatlantic flights.
. Byrd, Lindbergn, et al
Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd,
then a naval commander and yet
to make his mark, stored at Curtis
the plane in which he later flew
the Atlantic. Charles A. Lind
bergh used the airport, as did the
Frenchman, Rene Fonck; Ed Mu
sic, later chief pilot for Pan Amer
ican Airways who was killed in
the Paciffic; Wilmer Stultz, who
piloted Amelia Earhart in the
plane "Friendship" on their cross
ing of the Atlantic; Lou Gordon,
mechanic of the same flight, and
many others. Music was Die
Reynolds' chief pilot during the
Curtis field days.
"Lou Gordon was a taxicab
driver in Philadelphia when Wil
mer Stultz and I picked him up,"
Reynolds recalls. "We had en
tered his cab and he was driving us
to the Philadelphia Navy Yard,
where we took deliveryy on a Folk
er tri-motored plane. It so hap
pened that he was a mechanic for
the Yellow Cab Company when he
was not driving a cab. We took a
liking to him, and he helped us
with plane which had been laid up
for a year. Gordon quit his taxi-

sell the plane in England, and gave
its pontoons to Dick. "I stored
those pontoon in Southampton,
England, in a warehouse adjacent
to the shipyard," says tha Meyor.
"The pontoons were made of alum
inum. I don't know what happen
ed to them, but I had planned to
give them to a museum. They were
large and unwieldy, and therefore
it was better to store them."
As for the Earhart flight, he re
called that Stultz and Gordon had
agreed that Miss Earhart was to
get all of the publicity derived
trom its success. Wilmer Stultz
always known as an outspoken
person, was guest of honor at t.
dinner tendered by the Royal Ae
ro Club in London, and Reeynolds
also was one of the guests. The
Englishman who introduced Stultz
spoke in a most friendly marine;
and asked the American if he had
accomplished the flight for tech
nical reasons or to make a survey
of weather conditions in the air
over the Atlantic.
"Wilmer answered no,'' Dick
Reynolds relates. "He told them
that he did it for money, for $25,
000 in American money, or 5,000
pounds in British money, and that
any of us would have done it for
that."
Aviators at Curtis field founded
one of the oldest organizations for
airmen in the world, a fraternity
known as "Q. B." standing for
Quiet Birdmen. The Winston-Salem
Mayor is a charter member,
and the fraternity has grown to
the point where it now has chap
ters in many of the larger cities
in the United States.
In 1929, young Reynolds sold
out Curtis Field and its name was
changed to Roosevelt Field. Mean
while, he had become a licensed
pilot in the days before the United
States passed a Federal licensing
law in 1927, when President Cal
vin Coolidge named William Mc
Cracken as Assistant Secretary of
Commerce for Air. Before that,
most anybody who could get his
hands on an airplane in the United
States could fly one and the only
licensing agency was the Federa
tion Aeronautique Internationale,
otherwise known as the FAI, an
international agency that issued
licenses to pilots.
Dick Reynolds and several
friends purposely waited until the
great Orville Wright, who made
the first flight in a heavier-than-air
craft with his brother Wilbur,
was examining officer for the FHI
for a term of one year. Wheen
Mr. Wright took office, they ap
plied for licenses. He gave them
their flight testa and then signed
their licenses. Dick's licenses is
such a prized possession today that
he does not even keep it on exhib
it, but instead keeps it locked up
in a safe.
After selling Curtis Field, he
yielded to his next greatest love,
the sea, and bought the freighter
Harpoon, of which he acted as
captain and sailed the North and
Southt Atlantic and the Mediter
ranean Sea, carrying cargo be
tween North and South America,
Europe and Africa. "I was al
ways trying to get to the Pacific,"

he relates, "but I was never able to
get a cargo there."
For several years, he enjoyed
life on the Harpoon, making inter
mittent visits to his home in Winston-Salem
where he finally fell
in love with and married Miss Eliz
abeth Dillard.
"When did you
we asked him.
quit the sea
"When I got married," was the
reply. "My wife said .that a
freighter was not a particularly
good place for bringing up a fam
ily, so I sold the Harpoon and set
tled down."
The Reynolds' now have four
sons, Richard J. Reynolds, III, who
is 8 years old; John Dillard, 6,
Zachary Taylor, 3, and William
Neal Reynolds, 18 months old,
named after his father's uncle,
Will Reynolds.
The tobacco heir now divides his
time between his home city, of
which he was elected mayor in
June, and Washington where he
serves as Treasurer of the Demo
cratic National Committee. His
appointment to the latter post was
preceded by his service as director
of finance for the Democratic Na-
