Profit in Aerial Photography

It's either because very few photographers know how to fly, or else it's because very few fliers know much about photography-

But anyhow there's a good demand for the work of the aerial photo artist. Many a manufacturer would like a good bird's eye view of his factory - if he knew where and how to get it. There are very few specialists in this line of work and it seems to be a profitable field. Cities and counties use aerial photos as a basis in making tax re-assessments and, according to the Alexander Aircrafter, the more progressive appraisal companies now demand aerial photographic maps for all of their work. While a good aerial camera costs quite a bit of money, it would seem a good investment for a pilot with an eye to business.

Bank Book Dropped from Plane Found in Woods

Ralph Barrows, commercial aviator and vice-president of New England Aircraft Company of Hartford, Conn., has had a bank book returned to him which he lost while flying to Portland, Maine, about two weeks ago. Mr. Barrows made the air trip to Portland to deliver a plane to a customer, and when he returned he discovered that his company's pass book with the Hartford National Bank and Trust Co. was missing.

Wednesday the bank was surprised to receive notice from the Stafford Springs National Bank that one of its customers had found the book in the woods near Stafford Springs just over the line in Massachusetts.
