Mr. Michael A. Gitt
1569 Hone Avenue
New York, N. Y.

Dear Mr. Gitt:
Thank you for your recent letter relative to your flying experience. 

It is quite probable that we might, in the very near future have something to offer you. We note that you are married and therefore have that responsibility to consider. For the past ten years our pilots have been on a straight salary basis and we have not been particularly impressed by results obtained under this setup. 

We are more or less experimenting now with a new salary plan which will comprise a small base pay plus flying time. We feel that this will put the pilots strictly on their own merit and will keep them on their toes in so far as doing a real instructor selling job is concerned. 

We are always interested in finding the right type of man. On the other hand, it is difficult to recognize the type until you have worked with him for a reasonable period. The tone of your letter sounds interesting and we would like to talk to you sometime. On the other hand, there is nothing definite enough at present to warrant your making a specific trip to Boston. 

If in any way your future plans include a trip in this direction, we can assure you it will be a pleasure to sit down with you and discuss possibilities. 

Yours very truly, 

E.W. WIGGINS AIRWAYS, INC.
