Will you pleaso refer to your letter No. PA-230
dated the 12th of January. 1946?
2. It is not quite clear to me what is meant in your
letter by permission to land the small ARAMCO aircraft
when making emergency flights. It appears that you are,
in fact, seeding long term permission for the landing of
the craft on emergency flights. If this is so what would
the Company consider an emergency flight* 5
3. Perhaps you would let me hear further on the
subject.
Yours sincerely,

C.A. Rodstrom, Esq.,
Resident Manager,
