Letter from Fletcher A. Carr, 1943

 

1943-09-03

Carr, Fletcher A.

 

Carr has been "in Florida since leaving Chanute Field." As a native Californian, what impresses him about Florida is the lack of any feature higher than 400 feet, so it lacks vistas. He is in the Link Trainer Department, "instructing pilots in instrument flying." He says the trainer (an early simulator) "is quite a machine" and he knows Lauren Post would "get a kick out of trying to fly one."
