...crack pilot who during World War II literally wrote the military's book for instrument flying, thinks the answer lies in 1) better position finders on the ground and in the air, and 2) better communications between airports and pilots. By thus extending the range of the aerial police, traffic jams can be stopped before they develop.

For tourists he will start direct air service between England, Italy and Monte Carlo, with huge, four-engine aerial freighters so that guests can fly in with their cars. For yachtsmen he will build a huge concrete pyramid 200 yds. outside the harbor entrance, thus breaking up the Mediterranean swells that rock yachts in the harbor. As a final bow to luxury, Onassis plans to smooth Monte Carlo...
