Morrow Buys Two New Planes for Ag Spray Work
Gene Morrow of Morrow Flying Service at Marian Airpark buys two Snow Aeronautical 820 crop dusters. The 600 horsepower planes will be shown at the hangar for two weeks, with Morrow and crew (Herbert Wyatt and Tommy Falcon) available. Morrow will use the planes for air spraying as he starts his seventh season in Marian. He notes the Snow craft carry heavy payloads and are near the limit of aerial agricultural equipment. Two pilots from Georgia and Arizona will join before the season. Alaska’s easternmost point is 600 miles west of San Francisco.
