The was popularly known as the "Flying Tigers,'' and the corporation is known as "The Flying Tiger Line." " The group of California businessmen agreed to contribute an amount equal to any sum the "Flying Tigers" themselves raised in order to acquire planes and to put the "Flying Tigers" into the air cargo business. Both original groups expanded slightly In number. By the end of 1945, each group had contributed $87,000, or a total rof $174,000 to the cap'tal funds of the corporation. In the early months of this year, in order to provide additional operating funds to acquire more planes and other equipment, the two groups loaned the corporation $26,000 each, providing cn additional fund of $52,000. This amount, originally a lean, was transformed into a capital con¬ tribution. making a total contribution of $226,000. For this amount 2,260 shares of no par stock were issued. Immediately upon its organization, the corporation purchased from the Reconstruction Finance Corp. 14 Budd Conestoga Military Trans¬ port planes along with a large stock, pile of spare parts . The acqui¬ sition of all but two planes was financed by the Reconstruction Fi¬ nance Corp. The remaining two planes, at the time of the sale, were in Mexico under lease to Aerovias Azteca, S. A" Under its regula¬ tions; the RFC could not make a time payment sale of articles out¬ side of the United States. Consequently the purchase price for these two planes-was paid in full to the RFC and-their purchase was financed by a loan from a California bank obtained by some of the stockholders who took title to the planes. The Mexican lease on the two planes has now been cancelled and arrangements are being made essential of cargoes American war Volunteer . the the return corporation ;the the of planes to assumed the borrowing stockholders to title the planes. the United States. obligation Upon-their return, at tne resold four four.

" Because of the higher cost of transporting by air at current rates, as against rail ship¬ ments, such food products can only be marketed at premium prices. Only a limited specialty market or one using air transportation for novelty advertising can be serviced at the present time. The corporation has also engaged in charter passenger business. Many charter parties of passengers have been carried, across the country. For example. Naval personnel arriving on the West Coast and having brief furloughs have chartered planes for round trips to eastern points. The demand for such travel has been due solely to the stringencies of war travel,, and as space on regular air lines' planes and upon trains has become more available, the demand for charters has diminished sharply, •' / •; ' ■ PURPOSE—The net proceeds will be approximately $2,146,900.
