 Dr. Frank A. Brewster, 74-year-old Holdrege, Nebraska, physician, and his wife frequently fly together as the doctor makes his rounds of hospitals and lonely farms. Dr. Brewster pilots the Fairchild F-24 plane himself. Dr. and Mrs. Brewster are shown here as they arrive at the airport to board the plane. Dr. Brewster has been making calls by plane for nearly 30 years. Nebraskans recall that Dr. Brewster owned the first motorcycle in Furnas County and used it for country calls.
