Northington smilingly accepts an award on behalf of Piedmont Aviation from Gil Quinby (center), Vice President of Sales for the National Aeronautical Corporation (NARCO). Presented at a recent NARCO sales meeting in Philadelphia, Piedmont won the award for exceeding $1 million in NARCO sales since becoming a distributor. Watching the presentation at left is John Flynn, Treasurer of the corp oration. Also attending from Piedmont was Tom Ferguson of ORF-FB, and John Johnson of INT-FB. NARCO is a leading manufacturer of radio equipment for aircraft. She Tells Buyers 'Beech Is Best' Joyce Case is a pretty, blue eyed brownette, petite, with a brisk, business-like air which says, “enough of this talk, I have Beech airplanes to sell.” A Sales Representative for the Beech Aircraft Corporation, pro moting modern flight is her job, and she travels many thousands of miles each year to do it. She gives demonstration flights for potential customers, does occasional production test flying, and speaks in many cities on air age education topics. As an attractive young lady she is the frequent subject of interviews, and is unusually adept at turning the conversa tion away from herself and on to Beech. Any -reporter asking her about her private life is like ly to wind up being treated in stead to an explanation of Beech’s latest airplane designed for the traveling businessman. Joyce was recently at the Win- ston-Salem fixed base Beechcraft Division, helping Vice President R. S. Northington and his per sonnel demonstrate the latest in Beech airplanes. An accom plished pilot, she holds a com mercial license with instrument and instructor ratings, and is qualified to fly many different types of airplanes. She grew up with aviation and was taught to fly by her father. Dean Case, a well-known exec utive pilot. Joyce took her first “flying lesson” when she was 1 Beech Sales Representative Joyce Case, recently at INT-FB to help demonstrate her company's Bonanza and Debonair aircraft. able to reach the controls of an airplane sitting on her dad’s lap. She soloed on her 16th (the legal age) birthday. Joyce twice won the Antique Airplane Association Women’s National Aerobatic Champion ship for precision airmanship, flying her own small Pitts Spe cial named “Joy’s Toy,” a little biplane which she helped her father build. She has worked at some form of aviation most of her adult life. Before joining Beech Aircraft in 1960, she worked as a Steward ess for Central Airlines, a job that prepared her for the almost constant traveling she does now. Joyce’s present activities in volve just about everything re lated to aircraft sales and sales promotion. It might be said that she’s the most attractive airplane salesman in the business, and gives every indication of enjoy ing the job of convincing buyers that “Beech is the best.” (d.) The baggage is checked to DCA to which is attached a Checked Desiring tag. (e.) The On Board Desiring message is sent and is addressed SC, ROA, LYH, CHO. (f.) If the passenger is re moved at ROA the passenger re moved message is sent and is ad dressed to SC, LYH, CHO. (g.) The passenger is boarded on a later flight by issuance of a transfer boarding slip, against the passenger receipt of the original ticket. (h.) The Desiring Passenger slip. Answer An AC-2, Transfer Manifest, which is prepared and submitted by the station where the ship ment is transferred to the next carrier. This document is abso lutely essential before Piedmont can receive its portion of the revenue for transporting the shipment. Regardless of the number of times a shipment is transferred, there must be a transfer manifest prepared and reported to INT-A. For example: When a shipment has been trans ferred to Piedmont and it’s later discovered that it cannot be handled due to weight or space restrictions, a new transfer mani fest must be prepared transfer ring the shipment back to the original carrier or to another airline. NEW SALES CONTEST . . . (Continued from Page One) grove in the islands. Hawaiian products have been used to dec orate the rooms, with giant clam shells forming the basins in each bath, hollowed coconut shells used as condiment dishes in the House of Singing Bamboo Dining Room, and koa wood carved to construct the outrigger beds. Just completed at Coco Palms is the “King’s Court” addition with 45 new guest accommoda tions, two dining salons, a luau house, cocktail terrace, museum, library, and swimming pool. STATION SPOTLIGHT . . . (Continued from Page Three) of the building and the securing of a suitable tenant for it. “The company works closely with the community in securing a tenant suitable to both, and when one is found, the com munity’s industrial foundation completes the buildings to the specifications of the industry and works out its own arrangements with the company, and then re turns Appalachian’s original in vestment.” Twenty Cities Pulaski was selected after com peting with 20 other cities and towns bidding for the building. Entries were based on a survey containing 179 questions on all phases of the community’s life and government, and were judged by three out-of-state in dustrialists. Once Pulaski was chosen, enough money had to be raised to back up the power company and be placed in escrow under the Project plan. Once more the area’s enthusiasm came to the fore, and at a meeting held by the New River Valley Industrial Foundation, business firms and Individuals pledged $265,000 to Project Decision in an unprece dented hour and 52 minutes. In less than two hours, then, the people of Pulaski, Dublin, and Pulaski County accomplished what had taken some project towns up to two months to do. Grading on the new building has already been started on a site adjacent to the corporate limits in the eastern section of Pulaski. The highway depart ment has approved an access road to the building, the railroad company will put in a half mile of rail siding, and the Town of Pulaski has pledged water and sewer connections. Construction will be completed this fall and officials hope to have a tenant soon after that. Done Past As can be seen from the fore going example, it’s pretty obvi ous that once these people make up their minds to do something, it gets done with dispatch and no foot-dragging. The airport was constructed with the same enthusiasm, and its dedication last June (see The Piedmonitor, June, 1962, issue) was a high point in the community life. In a 1962 report issued by Pu laski County and the Town of Pulaski, there is an historical sketch of the area, ending with a paragraph which seems to de scribe best the atmosphere of the region in as few words as possible: (the area) “. .. looks back with satisfaction over a long and worthy record of steady develop ment; and supported by its best asset, an industrious, courageous, and well-informed citizenry, it can look forward with assurance to a progressive and prosperous future.” IB Luxurious accommodations await the winner of the Piedmont-United sales contest at the Kings Court, Coco Palms Resort, Hawaii.
