Road Chief Challenges Auditor on Plane Cost

Iowa Highway Commission head Joseph Coupal disputes state Auditor Lloyd Smith on the cost of operating a Piper Aztec. The audit charged 83.25 per hour, contrasting with Des Moines charter rates of 70. Coupal argues trade in and depreciation figures are overstated, citing hangar and runway surfacing values. The total 1965 67 operating cost was 822,243 with reimbursements from other agencies. The official notes shared use of the plane with others and may push a second aircraft purchase.
