From The Indianapolis Star, Friday, April 8, 1921: A week from tomorrow regular airplane service between Indianapolis and Chicago will become a reality according to Dr. John Kingsbury, a director of the Indianapolis Aero Association. The fleet of three planes consisting of two Canucks, carrying one passenger and a pilot, and one Avro, carrying two passengers and a pilot, will operate from a hangar at Thirty-fourth and Emerson Avenue. About July 1, the company will receive two seven passenger planes that will be added to the fleet and will be used in regular service between here and Chicago, according to Dr. Kingsbury. The three smaller planes will carry passengers and do aero-photography work. The Indianapolis Aero Association will also engage in selling and dealing in airships, airplanes, and parts. The air fleet will be under the direction of Harold Brooks.
