Aviation costs and potential, Madden cites needed funding
Enlisted man pay and clothing estimates imply $22 500 per man while officers and aircraft figures suggest $7 500 000 for 1 500 planes. If each flies 500 hours yearly, total mileage would reach 45 000 000. Maintenance could total $22 500 000 with field bases at five million, totaling $87 500 000 versus $85 000 000 spent with no return. Madden argues aviation needs more funding and that aeronautical development is just beginning. He as chairman of the appropriation committee vows to challenge claims of underfunding and notes gaps in planes and spares despite large expenditures.
