Here is information about other important stops along the airmail routes.

This page will be updated as we get more research materials.

The Moline, Illinois airport back in the 1930s. This airport was serviced by private contract:

Aerial view of the Airport Restaurant. (324kb)
Two aerial pics of rather busy operations. Lots of old airplanes. (325kb)
How pilots used to navigate in the old days. (333kb). If you look closely at the side of the building, you can read all the advertisements.
Pumphouse and Firestation. (436kb)

Thanks to the folks of the Metropolitan Airport Authority in Moline, IL for providing these pictures.

The Moline airport is one of the stops that I'll make on my way to Kitty Hawk, N.C.
