Product Description

This book chronicles the history of All American Aviation of western Pennsylvania, a commercial airline pioneer. The brainchild of self-styled inventor Dr. Lytle S. Adams and Richard C. du Pont, the company began as an airmail delivery carrier, taking advantage of the Experimental Air Mail Act passed by Congress in 1938. The Airway to Everywhere relates the exciting early days of airmail delivery—hair-raising tales of courageous pilots who scooped mail bags tethered to wires strung between poles on makeshift airfields. The story of this airline is placed within the context a typical twentieth-century American business pattern-where technological innovation is followed by development and commercial application, followed by government subsidies and corporate takeovers. In that vein, All American Aviation would become Allegheny Airlines, and later, U.S. Air.

5-0 out of 5 stars How An Idea To Benefit Small Communities Become An Airline
Lytle S. Adams, a descendant of Presidents John Adams and John Quincy Adams, clearly saw that smaller communiities were at a substantial disadvantage in the emerging field of airmail.The process of landing and take-off of airplanes was so time-consuming that it limited the number of stops an airplane could make to the larger communities with larger airports.

So he developed a plan to solve the problem, a problem which was similar to the difficulty of bringing electricity to rural areas (solved by the Rural Electric Administration and the cooperatives it spawned), bringing transportation to rural areas (solved by the U.S. Interstate Highway network), bringing television to rural areas (solved by the laying of cable to them).

His plan involved tecnnical ingenuity: the development of a device to hook on to an overhead cable where containers of mail would be be placed, so that mail could be picked up on regularly defined roots without a plane taking the trouble to land to take-off.

His idea gained political backing in the Roosevelt Administration and from the New Deal Democrats in Congress, because it fit in with their strategies to integrate isolated communities into the mainstream of American life.Through Roosevelt's daughter who had married into the DuPont family, he met Richard C. DuPont, an aviation enthusiast, who had the money and the skill to develop Adams' idea into a functioning company called All American Aviation.

The Adams-DuPont relationship had tragic personal overtones, although it was extremely productive in the long run.DuPont did not give Adams the financial rewards he hoped for,added insult to injury by reworking Adams' technology to make it more effective, and ultimately bought him out as the relationship became increasingly bitter and mutually distrustful.

And DuPont's dynamic corporate leadership--he had become head of the corporation at the age of 28-- led him to be offered to take over the U.S. Army's glider program as a special assistant to Army Air Forces Chief Henry H. "Hap" Arnold.

In this position, DuPont was testing one of the new motorless airships, when the craft fell into a spin, his parachute malfunctioned, and he fell to his death at the age of 33.

During World War II, the company's no-landing pickup system hit its peak in utilization, but it failed to make money and relied on governmental subsidies.After World War II, it faced the additional problem of steadily improving highways, which allowed mail to be picked up faster and cheaper without the no-landing pickup system.

With its back to the wall, All-American Aviation was offered a chance to become a passenger airline serving new or under-utilized routes.It leaped at this chance for financial salvation, and evolved over time into Alleheny Airlines and then U.S. Air.

The strengths of this book are many: detailed explanations of technology and technological changes, clear explanations of business strategy and the regulatory system, and concise explanations of both the internal politics of the company and the politics of Congress and the executive branch.This book is a great introduction to the field of airline regulation, a valuable addition to anyone's understanding of Pennsylvania business history, and a compelling case study of the importance and the limits of technological innovation.

The concise nature of the book--and its technological orientation--means that some intriguing political angles go uncovered.The irony of a descendant of rivals of two of 19th Century America's leading Democrats--party founder Thomas Jefferson and and party definer Andrew Jackson--relying on New Deal regulation and Democratic Party allies to start his business goes unmentioned.And the political analysis of the company's large base of Congressional support is matter of fact and unquestioning of motives and rationales.

Virtually no one who reads this book will ever look at the history of American air travel the same way again.This book is an inspiring example for those who seek to solve societal problems through business, and those who seek to grow new businesses from scratch.It offers a clear warning of the dangers--as well as the opportunities--posed by the search for venture capital. ...

Product Description
Established in 1901, the Arizona Rangers have protected and served the citizenry for over 107 years. Though the initial organization was shortlived, lasting only until 1909, the company with an authorized strength of just 26 men became the scourge of outlaws within the Arizona Territory and along the Mexican border where, like today, criminal activity was prevalent. In 1957, the Arizona Rangers were reestablished, and for the 50 years since, these modern rangers have continued the tradition of service that was established by their territorial predecessors. Today's Arizona Rangers are officially recognized by state legislation as a volunteer civilian law enforcement auxiliary. In keeping with their motto, Few But Proud Then and Now, they assist numerous law enforcement agencies and help keep the peace within their communities and state. ... Read more

Excerpt: Paddy Wallace (born 27 August 1979) is an Irish rugby union footballer from Belfast where he attended Campbell College. He plays for Ulster. He was a member of the Ireland U19 side (which also included Brian O'Driscoll) that lifted the U19 World Cup in 1998. More recently he was a member of the Ireland Grand Slam winning team of 2009. Wallace burst on to the scene at the beginning of the 2001/02 season putting in a number of top class performances from fullback or out-half for Ulster. He soon became a regular and was selected to play for Ireland A against the touring New Zealand All Blacks at Ravenhill. Although Ireland lost 43-30 Wallace put in an extremely accomplished performance as well as kicking 20 points. He was a regular in both the Ulster and Ireland A teams for the remainder of the season, indeed helping the Ireland A team to a Shadow 6 Nations Triple Crown. Wallace began the 2002/03 season as Ulster's first choice fullback but a broken leg in a Celtic League game away to Swansea at St.Helens meant he would miss the majority of the remainder of the season. He would return in time though to help his club, Ballymena, win the AIB All Ireland League Title, defeating Clontarf in the final at Lansdowne Road. He began the 2003/04 season in the Number 10 shirt for Ulster due to David Humphreys absence because of the impending Rugby World Cup in Australia. After fellow Ulster player Johnny Bell was ruled out of the tournament with an achilles tendon inj...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=7693241 ... Read more

Product Description
It's difficult launching the breakthrough innovations you need to stay competitive--while also protecting your established businesses. New ventures face stiff headwinds in their effort to sail alongside old businesses. Why? Most companies adopt one of two extreme--and flawed--approaches to innovation. Some set up isolated entrepreneurial units, only to see power struggles erupt later between innovation leaders and heads of established businesses. Others charge all managers with nurturing exciting new concepts. But unit heads, preoccupied with their existing businesses, neglect "diversions." How to avoid these scenarios? Consider a more balanced approach that blends processes, structures, and resources from your new and old businesses. For instance, staff innovation projects with "mature turks"--managers who have successfully run larger businesses but also readily challenge convention. Create distinct units responsible for venture efforts--but tightly integrate them at the senior executive level so they have access to needed resources. And borrow assets from your core businesses (brands, sales relationships) to give your new venture a competitive edge. ... Read more
