Coe College to discuss vocational flight training program
A Cedar Rapids airport meeting with Harold F. Illich and William B. Davis of the Civil Aeronautics Authority outlined a nationwide vocational flight training plan for 18 to 25 year olds. Coe College would offer a 72 hour ground course with credits possible, followed by selective flying instruction funded by the government. The program would cap costs for students and pay instructors, with a nationwide $4 million five year appropriation supporting colleges and instructors.
