“Fly” Says Bill
lBO Degree Side Approah
o
The 180 degree precision landing
is a landing made on a designated
spot, following an approach which
describes half of a rectangle.
The maneuver is begun when the
plane is directly opposite, and to
the side of, the spot.
The plane is glided down wind,
and a turn of 90 degrees is made
so that it is flying directly cross
wind. Then another turn of 90 de
grees is made and the plane is
glided into a normal landing.
This is a particularly valuable
maneuver, since it? is the approach
often used in forced landings.
Your flight path or pattern over
the ground depends on your alti
tude and on wind conditions.
The higher you are the farther
you will glide.
The stronger the wind, the short,
er your path over the ground will
be when headed into the wind,
and longer when headed down
wind.
Since you will be making these
approaches from a relatively con
stant altitude of approximately 600
feet, the important factor is the
wind. Your problem therefore is
to adjust the length of the “legs”
of your approach so that your glide
will be ended and the landing made
just beyond the designated spot.
The down-wind leg
If the wind is weak, this leg
should be longer; thus your cross
wind leg will be flown farther
from the spot. If the wind is strong,
your down-wind leg should be
shorter, and your cross.wind leg
will be flowm closer to the field.
The cross-wind leg
At the beginning of this leg is
your key position. From this posi
tion you estimate how far the plane
will glide, and then decide what
you must do to land at the intended
spot. If, because of your height
and distance from the field, you
think your glide will be too short
to hit the spot, you can make your
turn into the field sooner.
The final approach.
After the turn into the field is
made, concentrate primarily upon
making the landing. Since a nor
mal glide must be maintained, the
question of whether or not you hit
the spot has already been decided
by the nature of your flight
on the first two legs.
Remember.
The precision of your landing de
pends on the first two legs, which
should be approximately equal in
length.
Keek a sharp lookout ahead and
below for other planes.
Keep in mind constantly your
position in the air in relation to
the spot at which you want to
land. This is the only way in
which you can judge the length
of glide necessary, and the point at
which you turn into the field.
Dont select a definite spot or
object on the ground as your key
position. Rather, the key position
is a specific point in your flight,
path. After all you may want to
use the 180 degree approach on
a strange field some day.

When Weather Is Sizzling, Try Mint Ade
(See Recipes Below)
Refreshing Drinks
For a simple meal at home, for
that brief stop in the afternoon when
you want to re
lax and cool off,
or for a light
company snack,
there’s nothing
quite like the
cool, frosty drink.
Whether you are
a husky eater or
• a dainty snacker,
you’ll want to keep these refresh
ing recipes on file for these hot,
summer months.
One woman I know keeps cool
drink ingredients on a special cor
ner in the pantry so the beverages
can be ready at a moment’s no
tice. She also keeps dainty cookies
on hand so there’s always refresh
ments if company comes or if the
children get especially hungry be
fore dinner.
Cool drinks can fortify the diet
with both vitamins and minerals if
you use eggs, milk and fruit or
berries. But not only will they be a
toast to health, for they provide that
restful relaxation that is so essen
tial to well-being.
If you want to get fancy with bev
erages, make colorful ice cubes by
using fruit juice and water in the
ice tray. Or, drop bits of leftover
fruit in the ice trays before freez
ing.
Glasses can be garnished with
mint leaves, lemon or orange slices,
puffs of whipped cream or me
ringue. The rims may also be
dipped in beaten egg and a bit of
sugar to give them that delightful,
frosty look.
For beverages that add nourish
ment as well as sparkle, consid
er these milk, egg and fruit drinks.
See that the children get some of
them often:

Program Os Modernization And Improvement I n
Southern Railway System’s Passenger Servj ce
..A program of modernization and improvement in the Southern
Railway System’s service, involving the re-equiping of four trains with
147 new lightweight streamlined passenger cars costing an estimated
total of more than sls million, was announced today by Ernest E. Norris
the railway’s President.
The new equipment will include 59 all room sleeping cars, 8 room
bar-lounge-observation cars, 4 room-bar. lounge cars, 13 diners, 35
(coaches, 4 lounge-cafe.coaches, 6 lounge-bar-coaches, 4 baggage,
coaches, 4 baggage-dormitory, and 10 railway post office cars.
..Mr. Norris said that the new cars “reflect the Southern’s desire
to proceed as rapidly as possible with its extensive betterment p ro .
which the war interupped.
.We want to give our customers the finest service possible, but it takes
money to do that. With our present inadequate rates, and greatly j n .
creased wage, fuel and other costs, it is impossible to make ends meet.
Thus we are looking hopefully to the Interstate Commerce Commission
for an early favorable decision on the railroad’s petition for a 25 per
cent increase in freight rates. On that decision will depend how f ar
and how fast we can progress our improvement program, if at all.
The new cars now being aquired, Mr. Norris said, will increase from
47 to 194 the number of modern lightweight streamlined cars operating
over the Southern, and will be used to effect a major improvement
in the following trains: The Crescent, trains No. 37 and 38, operating
between New York and New Orleans, will be streamlined and converted
into an “all.room” train.
The Royal Palm, trains No. 3 and 4, operating between Florida and
Detroit, Cleveland and Buffalo, via Cincinnati, will be streamlined.
The Southerner, trains Nos. 47 and 48, streamlined all-coach train
operating between New York and New Orleans, via Atlanta and
Birmingham, will be newly equipped.
The Tennessean, trains Nos. 45 and 46, streamlined coach and sleep
ing car train operating between Washington and Memphis, will also
be newly equipped. As a result, some of the streamlined equipment
now being used in the Tennessean, as well as in the Southerner, will be
diverted to other Southern Railway trains.
In making today’s announcement, Mr. Norris pointed out that three
of the trains affected The Crescent, The Royal Palm, and the
Southerner are operated over the tracks of five railroads, altogether,
in addition to the Southern. These five railroads, the Atlantic and
West Point, the Florida East Coast, the Louisville and Nashville, the
New York Central, and the Pennsylvania, will participate on a mileage
basis in the buying of the new equipment. The Southern’s share will
be 101 cars costing more than $lO million..
