LADUING FIELD IN
CENTER OF GROUNDS
The new landing field for air craft
will be located in the center of the
fair grounds. This step has been decided
by the management of the
Chesterfield County Fair Assocition.
The grounds will shortly be enclosed
by a new fence which will take
in something over 20 acres, thus
doubling the size of the former area.
A race course will at some future
time be constructed and the paddock
or space inside the track, will be an
ideal location for a landing field. It
is not likely that the race track will
be built for the next fair, but the
landing field will be in readiness during
the early summer. Plans and
specifications have been received
from the Curtis Aeroplane Corporation,
of Garden City, Long Island,
and these specifications will be followed
in arranging and marking the
field. A heavy concrete roller ia being
constructed for the purpose of
leveling and solidifying the ground.
Not only will this landing field be
of value to Chesterfield during fair
time for exhibition flying, but promises
to put this town on the map
when commercial air routes are laid
out through this section of the country,
which now is only a matter of a
short time. Air routes are laid out 1
so as to keep within as easy distance
as possible of landing fields. A good '
landing field in Chesterfield will '
therefore tend to place the air route
!-. 'i- * -
uuckvi; uvei ine town, a Tilling station
carrying supplies of high grade (
gasoline and lubricating oils will '
cause many' planes to land here that
would otherwise continue on to a '
field so equipped.
A chain of landing fields constitutes
an air road. In other words, 1
* 1
where automobiles and locomotives
require roads and stations, the air- '
plane asks for stations only. The '
roadbed, better than can be made of 1
steel and asphalt, is free. The air- '
plane has developed much faster than 1
the landing fields and supply sta- '
tions have heen built. In fact the 1
planes are ready for business and are '
doing business where landing facili- 1
ties are adequate,
Hundreds of cities already have *
landing fields and are profiting in (
several ways from the air traffic that
they attract. Probably the greatest
benefit that Chesterfield will at first
derive from its field will be in the j
nature of publicity and advertising, j
The name of the town will be placed
on lists and maps alongside those of (
the nation's largest cities and will be 1
given equal importance in classifies- i
tion. Ntion-wide attention is attracted
to the town or city which pan ad.
vertise itself as open tq all types of
air traffic, i
It is, therefore, easy to see that
the new landing field will be of inestimable
benefit to the community
in obtaing the early advantages of
this fast growing and already important
method of transportation.
