(12) Operating Permits 



In nearly all districts there was an increase in the number of operating 

 permits issued due to greatly increased mining and logging activity.

 with last year's total of 3,626 permits covering 23,186 persons. 



OPERATING PERMITS, 1933 



II— REPORT OF DIRECTOR OF PROVINCIAL AIR 



SERVICE 



1. Introduction 

 Ten Years of Operation: 



The season 1933 just completed is worthy of special attention, in that it 

 terminates ten years of successful operation of the Provincial Air Service. 

 It is therefore in order to view the main features of fleet performance from the 

 operational standpoint. A survey of the following accumulative figures is 

 presented with a certain amount of justifiable satisfaction, because they 

 compare more than favorably with the best of commercial flying organizations 

 in this country. 



TABLE I— TOTALS FOR THE TEN YEAR PERIOD 



Hours Flown 75,009 



Miles Flown 4,770,799 



Passengers Flown 30,245 



Personnel Flown 41,404 



Effective Load Flown 13,852,304 Lbs. 



The above table of figures compares favorably with results obtained by 

 other operators working on a ten months per year basis, even though the above 

 work has been performed by the Provincial Air Service during a season of less 

 than six months per year.
