Indians Dream Of F 80 Jets For Water Routes
Hopi tribal councilors visiting Williams Air Force Base envision owning an F-80 Shooting Star and a C-47 cargo plane to speed travel from Winslow and haul water. They learn the cost would strain tribal funds, and the visit centers on defense questions discussed with Gov. Howard Pyle. Dean Tevaya and Samuel Shing accompany chairman Homer Homewytewa as they tour jets, noting a jet could cover 250 miles in 25 minutes while a burro trip to the mesa takes two days for water.
