Captain W. B. Woodworth, Chief Pilot
Colonial Airlines Inc.
La Guardia Field
Jackson Heights,
New York, New York.                           October 7, 1949.

Dear Captain Woodworth, 

          I have your letter of September 26, 1949, in which you inform me that Captain O'Neil has advised you that I considered the Domestic DC-4 Training Program unsafe.  To simply say that I am astounded at this information rom you is a mild statement indeed.

          For the record, I would like to take this opportunity to inform you, unequivocaly and categoricaly that Captain O'Neil was not and is not authorized to represent me personally in any way what so ever.  If Captain O'Neil as Chairman of the Safety Committee used my name in council business, he did so without my knowledge.

          Furthermore, I have never represented myself to the Company in any way as to just how I felt about the Domestic DC-4 Training Program.


                           Sincerely yours,

                           Michael A. Gitt, Captain
                           Colonial Airlines Inc.
