Driving Force Behind Flyers Awakens in Aviation Medicine
In a meeting of the Aero Medical Association Dr S Evans from Randolph Field argues motivation to fly stems from personality and inner drive, not external pressure. He says aviation attracts many to display growth and address social inadequacies, while flying can symbolize aggression and unconscious hostility. He warns careful screening of applicants to weed out partial disabilities that could predict accident risk. The report also notes the VA will use World War I life insurance trust funds to pay a $40 million dividend to 435,000 policyholders and mentions New Jersey’s three year governor term.
