May 20, 1940 Mr. J.H. Carmichael, Pennsylvania-Central Airlines Corp., Alleghany County Airport, Pittsburgh, Pa. Dear Mr. Carmichael! I would like to sum up in a few words my qualifications for an Airline Co-Pilots position. In the past, I have been employed by different companies; I have worked for Aero Service Corporation in Philadelphia as a Photographic Pilot and also for General News Service in New York in the same capacity (Photo Pilot). I have flown Stinson Reliants for Unger Aircraft at Hadley Airport, New Jersey on charter jobs all over the East. These Stinsons wre fully equipped with Two-way radio, controllable pitch propeller and all necessary blind flying instruments. My experience with Bennett Air Service of Hightstown, N.J. is as follows;flying both Land and SeaPlanes, and doing student instruction and demonstration work in both types of aircraft. I have had considerable experience flying the "beam" on Civil Airways, this training I believe would make me valuable as an Airline Pilot. At present I am employed by Standard Flying Service at Basking Ridge, N.J. doing Student Instruction and Charter work, as Chief Pilot. My employer knows that I am seeking Airline employment and is willing to aid me in securing such a position. Should you wish to interview me, I am available at any time. Very truly yours, Michael A. Gitt
