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

to

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,

money will be added to working capital to be
