Hadley Airport Notes

Lindy's Well Producing
The much talked about well on Col. Charles A. Lindergh's property near Princeton has reached a point where the output of water is five gallons a minute. Work has temporarily halted when this test was made in accordance with Lindy's request. It was stated by the Colonel that the well would have to have an output of at least 15 gallons of water per minute to meet with his needs. The well drillers stated that it would take some time to get the well deep enough to produce the amount of water desired by the Colonel, and in conclusion said the ground where the well was being dug was nearly solid rock and the hardest drilling they had encountered in their careers in the business.

And the Year Is Still Young
It was announced through this column late last year that the United States Aircraft Co. of New Brunswick would be busy this year getting the much-sought-for A.T.C. (Approved Type Certificate) which the company needs to put the sturdy SP7 high wing monoplane in production on a commercial basis. Word has been received from Washington, D.C., that in static tests the little monoplane has received the official O.K. of the department. There is one test that the craft has to go through yet and that is the flying, spinning and lateral stability of the craft at all speeds.

Don't forget, any landing you can walk away from is a good one and when in doubt "Nos'er down"
