One 16,000-pound shipment, consisting of plywood sheets cut into 770 loar by seven-foot pieces, was prepared by the Booth-Kelly Lumber Company and shipped by the Harry Aldrich Lumber Company to the Granite Mills and Fixture Company in Salt Lake City. A second 16,000-pound plane load included four-inch wide flooring. Arrangements were also made for additional shipments of door and window sashes from Portland to Salt Lake City. United Air Line officials said they believed it was the first large scale commercial shipment of lumber by air in this country.
