Ground Operations’ Retirement Plan Benefits Employes Training Program Serving as a standard training program not only for American personnel but for local personnel at foreign stations as well, is the Ground Operations Training Program recently launched by the Ground Operations Department. The new on-the - job - training program also serves as a basis of instruction at the Ground Training School and for home study at line stations. It was organized under the direction of Charlie Ruegg, Operations Superintendent, in collaboration with Bill Ferris, Ground Training Supervisor and several members of the Airport Managers Group. All Aiport Manager personnel, American and local, are eligible for enrollment in the course. -New American employes in the Airport Manager Group will be enrolled by the Operations Superintendent on the date they are hired. Local employes will be enrolled upon application by the Airport Manager in writing to the Operations Superintendent. The program is divided into five courses: Student Airport Manager; Junior Airport Manager; Airport Manager; Senior Airport Manager, and Section Superintendent. When a man is hired in the Airport Manager Group, he is given the title of Student Airport Manager. He is then assigned to the Operations Ground Training School where he is given a course in “Initial Basic Requirements for all Personnel.” This covers PAA System and Division organization and Departmental functions; Radiotelephone Course; Aircraft Familiarization and Mathematics Refresher. Upon completion, the candidate is assigned to one of three subjects. (1) Dispatch and Flight Watch, which covers Primary Navigation; Primary Meterology; Civil Air Regulations—I; and Dispatch and Flight Watch Procedures; or one phase of Airport Operations. Airport Operations is divided into (a) Departure and Arrival Procedures, which embraces Cargo Loading, and Weight and Balance; and Airport Coordination; or (b) Marine Procedures. Included in this course of study are: Launch Procedures and Regulations; Night Operations; Beaching, Launching, and Docking Methods; and Seamanship and Swimming. Upon completion of this phase of training, the candidate is then assigned to an airport where he is assigned to the type of work for which his initial training has equipped him. During assignment the appointee studies the i Continued on Page 2) News Drive On In line with our drive for more complete coverage of news out here at NBA, the following reporters have been appointed from the Shop Superintendents section: Rosemarie Horton_____________ Metal Shop Elliot Held_________________ Engine Shop Dorothy Allison_______Plane Service B-314 Edith Scheel___________Fabric & Equipment Rena Quinones______________Accessory Shop Beatrice Celano__Prop, and Machine Shop Joe Malice_____________________Paint Shop Frieda Keleman____________Instrument Shop Terry DiSalvio.......... Automotive Shop Gedman Dauksis...______C-54 Plane Service We’re asking everyone to cooperate to the fullest extent with our staff so that we may give you the type of news you most want. If a record is set in your shop, notify your reporter and he or she will secure all details and shoot them to the CLIPPER. Naturally we’re also most anxious to get little personals on marriages, engagements, babies, who-went-where-and-did-they-have-fun. If your reporter is on a different shift and you have a piece of “hot” news — call the Editor on Ext. 333. Support The 7th War Loan, Buy A Bond! In two months Vice Admiral Marc Mit-scher’s carrier-based bombers flew 18,000 missions, dropped 6,-000 tons of bombs and fired 8,000 rockets. This should give you some idea of the tremendous expenditure of war material needed to overcome the Japs. That’s why you must buy extra War Bonds far beyond any amount you ever bought in a war loan. The war with Japan is just beginning. From Guadalcanal to Okinawa, we have encountered only the outposts of Japanese might. Bond buying to back the fighting in the Pacific so far also has been on an “island to island” basis. From now on, it’s “bonds away on Tokyo.” You have a personal Seventh War Loan, quota. Find out what it is and do even better. With the PAA Cooperative Retirement Income Plan now in its fifth year, participants in the Plan have invested approximately $1,-500,000 for their own future income, and PAA has added more than an equal amount to purchase retirement income for these men and women. Although PAA is a young organization, fourteen members of the big PAA family are already receiving pension checks. By the end of 1945 this number is expected to increase to 20. The next year will add about nine more. By 1949 the total will be about 50, and each following year will see more persons added to the roster of those whose working years have won them both leisure and necessary funds to enjoy their leisure. There are now 2,830 active participants in the Retirement Income Plan. Audit of the 1944 reports from Division payroll offices shows a gain of 17% in participation within the year. First place went to the Africa-Orient Division, with an increase of 33%. The New York Office, with a gain of 28%, stood second. Other increases were: Atlantic Division and District Sales Offices, 25% each; General Accounting —Office, 16%; Latin American Division, 14%; Pacific-Alaska Division, 13%. What Plan Does The PAA Pension Plan assures security after retirement to the 2,830 employes who are now participating in it, and offers the same security to many others who for one reason or another have not yet elected to take advantage of its provisions. For those who at retirement age have been active in the Plan for 30 years or more, the Pension payments plus Social Security benefits will provide a retirement income amounting to half pay or more. For every dollar an employe invests in the Pension Plan, PAA also makes an investment fbr his benefit. In fact, by the time he reaches retirement age, his pension will have cost PAA more than the amount it will have cost the employe himself. These PAA payments are entirely over and above the amount paid to the employe in salary or wages. It is the substantial payments thus made by PAA in addition to salary or wages, and the earning power of the money contributed by Company and employe, that enable the pensioned participant to enjoy a Retirement Income of the size the Plan makes available. In less than three years after retirement, ground workers receive back in pension checks all the money that they individually have paid in. Flight personnel receive back all their own money in four years. Thereafter the Pension payments which continue through all of the retired participant’s life, are drawn entirely from PAA’s Pension Plan contributions and the earnings on the Company-employe investment.
